  1. In anticipation of apple maps starting ads, I am going to give OSMAnd maps a try. Directions, searching, transit..let’s see how it does.

    It is, if anything, too much info. It has individual park benches. You may call that good, but it makes the map so busy. Also no street view, but I can fall back to Apple maps if needs must.

    Still, let’s give it a whirl.

  6. I've finally rid of #meta apps from my #android phone. Now to sort out #google apps & find an alternative #Foss #os for my phone. Unfortunately these phone OS's are either too expensive to buy & use or unavailable for majority of phones out there. I'm already using #Foss app's to replace some of the Google app's.
    I'm using @pixelfed instead of #instagram and obviously @Mastodon instead of #facebook. For emails, I've #thunderbird and for #maps I've #osmandapp. I use #fdroid instead of #playstore

  11. @muri Das ist leider nicht möglich bzw. (noch?) nicht implementiert. Live Verkehrsdaten gibt es nicht, aber öffentliche Sperrungen sollten eigentlich technisch einzubauen sein. Bei uns im Dorf ist aktuell die durchgehende Bundesstraße voll gesperrt, OsmAnd weiß davon aber nichts. Vielleicht kann hier jemand aus der Community mit Ideen weiterhelfen, ggf gibt es ein Plugin?

  13. Struggling to make the world a better place? Then how about improving the map of the world by participating in #openstreetmap ?
    It's like #wikipedia just for maps. It provides a free and open-source alternative to Google Maps. I use it with #osmandapp for car navigation.

    The easiest way to participate is probably with streetcomplete.app
    No prior knowledge necessary.
    The app guides you to complete missing map data by little quests. Careful though: it's very addictive.

  18. Habe mir gerade erstmals die #osmandapp heruntergeladen, weil ich eine gute LKW-Navigation haben will. Mal schauen, wie sich die App so im Alltag anstellt. Der erste Eindruck ist schon mal vielversprechend.

  23. Summer 24 somewhere in Sweden.
    After a delicious dinner, we went for a digestive walk with the midnightsun and making some survey. Of course I used the Osmand app with Quick Action function, Streetcomplete and took pictures with Mapcomplete.

  28. #TIL that #OsmAnd has a setting to colour tracks according to the speed you used when walking them, or the altitude of each part (among other things):

    osmand.net/docs/user/map/track

    (So I don't need a fancy smart watch, like my colleague, to get that 🙂 [it's enough with a fancy smart phone…])

    Where is it ?

    I can't find it

  39. Openstreetmap is a collaborative work. Someone has mapped every single car park here. Someone else has mapped the buildings and house numbers. I mapped the missing POI while we were travelling through and my +1 was shopping. Everyone can make a small contribution.

  44. @pnorman Beautiful visualization. You can see that it's not so much used in the US when compared to Europe. This corresponds with my experience when using #osmandapp on a recent road trip to big cities on the US East Coast. Was surprised to see how much data was still missing from OSM.
