Looking for vegan places and not a fan of proprietary datasets? #MapComplete has several themes to find (and edit) vegan places, based on #OpenStreetMap data!
The “restaurants and fast food” theme will show most places you might be interested in. If you love fries (like I do), “fries shops” will be helpful for you. And in the “gluten free” and “lactose free” themes, you can filter for vegan places too!
You can also easily edit these places with MapComplete, for example to add details or update incorrect or outdated information. Your changes will be uploaded to OpenStreetMap, which is freely reusable data!
I moved nearly 40K pictures (which were linked from #OpenStreetMap and created with @MapComplete from imgur to @panoramax You can read more about the proces
As you might know, Im the main developer of MapComplete. For those who dont know, MapComplete is an OSM-viewer and editor, where contributors can easily answer questions, add new points and upload pictures from a POI from a cozy website.
nice service by @jaller94: find missing #stolpersteine on #osm in your berlin kiez. simply load the gpx file into your favourite osm app (e.g. osmand) and add missing stolpersteine to #openstreetmap.
Hey würde jemand Lust verspüren sich beim Betrieb eines deutschen #panoramax Servers einzubringen? Streetview Photos unter CC und für OSM community.openstreetmap.org/t/…
Wenn es um das Problem des Hostens der Bilder geht könnte man vielleicht gucken, dass man die Bilder einfach auf Wikimedia Commons speichert und Panoramax nur als Viewer für die auf den Wikimedia Servern liegenden Fotos nutzt.
We moved about 10K images already, about 2.8% of all 'image'-tags in the #OpenStreetMap-database. All those moved images are made in Flanders.
There are 19K images hosted on Imgur, of which the vast majority (probably 18K) are made with MapComplete and will be moved soon.
If your app supports the image tag, it might be neat to start supporting panoramax too. See the wiki for details. OpenAEDMap just implemented it (see github.com/openstreetmap-polsk…, might not be live ATM)
Op vrijdag 22 november (13u30) en zaterdag 23 november (11u) organiseer ik een wandeling vanuit de Krook in #Gent waar we met #OpenStreetMap en @MapComplete bewakingscamera's in kaart gaan brengen.
Na een korte uitleg gaat iedereen een eigen kant op, op zoek naar camera's.
But if I know that the chance of the right page being the first result on #Kagi is high, I can just do: socket @osmwiki ! then I land on: wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Ke…:*
! is basically the Kagi equivalent of that google "i'm feeling lucky" feature from back in the day
🚶♂️🗺️ Doe mee aan de LiLi-app mapathon in Brugge!
Op 29 november van 18:00-22:00 in het Hof van Watervliet helpen we OpenStreetMap België met het toegankelijker maken van de stad voor blinden en slechtzienden. Samen vullen we ontbrekende infrastructuur aan die de Lili-app gebruikt om de veiligste routes te bepalen. Meer info: amai.vlaanderen/projecten/proj…
OpenStreetMap België organiseert een mapathon in Brugge in het kader van onze deelname aan het “[Lili-app project](https://amai.vlaanderen/projecten/project3-lili)”.
When I took my car to the service I noticed, that the service wasn't in #OpenStreetMap. Well, it is now. And whole little street got updated with fresh data... 😊 I like how easy it is...
Build your own bus depot from scratch and create your personal bus routes in City Bus Manager. Play in your own hometown or any famous city in the world with real map data.
For our (small) master dissertation about #education (but mostly because we are interested), we are doing research about using #OpenStreetMap within #secondary education (roughly 12 - 18 years old, but with a focus on 16 - 18 years old).
The long-term goal is to create a usable #lesson where pupils go out and map using a data collection app. If you have any experience with this, would you be so kind to spend 10 minutes of your time to fill out the survey?
Guess when #MapComplete started uploading pictures to our @panoramax -instance and started introducing `panoramax`-tags to the #OpenStreetMap-database...
Voor de duidelijkheid: #MapComplete werkt op/met dezelfde database waar heel veel apps op werken: #openstreetmap.org (de Wikipedia van kaarten). Wat je toevoegt komt dus uiteindelijk bij iedereen terecht. Doen dus!
Letošní velké povodně se naší rodině vyhnuly. Přesto jsem jejich průběh sledoval, protože v zasažených oblastech jsem měl vzdálenější rodinu, kolegy, známé. Jak už to u takových tragických událostí bývá, vyvolaly celou řadu diskusí: o schopnosti krajiny zadržovat vodu, budování přehrad, polderů atd. Mě ale pohledem ajťáka zaujaly tři věci.
I've recently taken to adding a direction tag to benches in #OpenStreetMap. My convention is that the tag value corresponds to the direction of view.
Delighted to find that @vespucci_editor now shows (single) direction values, but wished I'd known about the whizzy direction tag gadget which uses the phone's compass yesterday. (It's a bit too clever if adding the values in retrospect.)
Leider fehlt mir die Freiheit, es uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen, solange keine trackingfreien Dienste, wenigstens alternativ wie z.B. #OpenStreetMap oder #PeerTube, verwendet werden.
@fabianstadler Everything is #OpenStreetMap data, so someone added it. You can see the history of an object if you log in and press the green OSM-logo.
And if you know of missing vending machines, you can add them yourself too - that is why the button 'add new feature' is there ;)
Did you know? mapcomplete.org supports hotkeys. Our favourites are:
P (and shift+P) to select a Picture-based background, M (and Shift+M) for a map (not based on OSM), and O for an #OpenStreetMap based one. Backgrounds are curated by the editor layer index.
And of course, Ctrl+F selects the search bar. Btw, a big improvement to search is coming soon.
For more hotkeys, check the 'Hotkeys'-page in the menu
A small Belgian NGO has collected data about bicycle parkings, but they now want to import their bicycle parking data into #OpenStreetMap
Care to help a bit? It is a big game of geo-sleuthing ;)
It can be done by:
1. Open mapcomplete.org/velopark 2. Search a yellow icon - it is a bicycle parking to import 3. Figure out if it still exists and where exactly it is located 4. Link or create a new bicycle parking 5. Update attributes
Rinse and repeat! Happy mapping and thanks for helping!
Another small update that dropped a few days ago: the "hotels"-theme now supports more then just hotels, but also B&Bs, guest houses, motels, hostels, ...
This makes it easier to consult and add this information to #OpenStreetMap
This map is for all things free and reuse, such as second hand shops, bicycle repair workshops, repair cafés, public bookcases, ...
The end goal is to have support for all features mentioned on wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Wi…, but that is still a lot of work - for which all help is appreciated! If you know a bit about #OpenStreetMap tagging, create a layer on mapcomplete.org/studio and create a layer!
Cela m'a pris pas mal d'heures de travail, mais je suis fière d'avoir contribué parallèlement à #OpenStreetMap (#OSM) et à #WikimediaCommons en y ajoutant les #sculptures installées dans le #parc devant l'Eglise de #Giubiasco (#Bellinzona). Je ne comprends pas, par contre, pourquoi il n'y a aucun site web qui fait la promotion de ce #patrimoine artistique...
20 Jahre OpenStreetMap: Auf Augenhöhe mit Google Maps und Apple Maps
Als OpenStreetMap gegründet wurde, kannte es nur eine Handvoll Aktivisten. Mittlerweile ist der Globus fast abgedeckt und OSM nicht nur in Krisen nützlich.
the map is open-source, but be aware that #Locus as app is not. IMO this is not necessarily a bad thing, software developers have to earn money. Another great (not #FOSS) app for navigation during sport activities (#running, #cycling, #trekking, etc.) is IMO #komoot : komoot.com It also uses #openstreetmap data
I finally started to fill data in to #OpenStreetMap. At first I just looked at how several features are already tagged, then slowly started to correct wrong data and then add missing details. I use #StreetComplete app to add details on walk travels, #OsmAnd app to add POIs and of course the iD web editor for larger edits. I am especially impressed by the iD editor. It's so helpfull with clever use of autocomplete and linking to #OSM wiki... The best reward is 3D view becoming more realistic...
Dear AI Companies, instead of sneakily scraping OpenStreetMap.org, how about a tiny $10,000 donation? We'll even throw in a shiny new download link to our entire planet's geo data! Who knew it was that easy? Start here: supporting.openstreetmap.org/d… #win #ai #bots #OpenStreetMap 🌍 🤖 🤑
I thought @MapComplete had a carousel of nearby WikiMedia images for easy crosslinking but it's not showing up for me for the themes that I thought had it.
Edit: there's a "browse and link nearby images" button much further down the form.
Přispívání do OpenStreetMap: chytání „pokémonů“ se StreetComplete
V dalším díle seriálu o přispívání do OpenStreetMap se věnuji tomu nejméně náročnému způsobu – doplňování informací k již existujícím objektům. Dozvíte se, jak na to ve skvělé aplikaci StreetComplete.
