It is whispered that the provider might be TomTom...

Looks cool! However, there is with badge.team also a similar app platform which they used on https://flow3r.garden/, on the MCH22-badge and the now in preorder namatsu: https://shop.nicolaielectronics.nl/products/tanmatsu?variant=55608856183133 (which I just ordered two of)

Their live traffic data's comes not from OSM. It is not publicly known what their source is for this data.

Oh, damn, I didn't notice this was OM. I wrongly assumed this was the main website.

I wonder why the OSM team isn’t calling the ISP out by name.

Because this would open up OSM for defamation (and hinders a commercial resolve). It doesn't solve anything right now.

The seach engine tries to infer the correct administrative area based on points. This is known behaviour of ~~nominatim~~ some search engines but doesn't mean that the data is incorrect

Please, see the linked thread on the community for official communication.

Feel free to rant and vent in this lemmy-thread, but don't speculate or "give good advice" to the operations-team; they know what they are doing.

You are not allowed to use Google Maps for this. Ther is copyright protection on it.

How does it work? You go there and note down the addresses.

I moved all pictures created with MapComplete and hosted on Imgur to our Panoramax instance. You can read a bit more about the process and some discoveries here

When you make a phone call, the antenna's are used 100% for calling and using data is disabled (or at least, it used to be). Android might thus "pretend" that it is still connected.

I created the routing profile and put it online, some other person then took it and actually integrated it and got it merged. So, I did the fun part and they did the boring (but also important) work.

So I'm not able to claim the full credit, but close enough to get a lot of bragging rights.

You are supposed to have a separate entry for the bicycle repair stand and the office. One could move leaving the other behind.

With https://mapcomplete.org/cyclofix.html?z=18.4&lat=51.34379511912127&lon=12.369132296106727, it should be easy to add them.

I contributed the "skiing" profile a few years ago :)

Hi!

I'm the main dev of https://mapcomplete.osm.be (and also one of the modsof this subcommunity). I have a long train journey ahead of me today (and next week again).The ideal moment to answer questions from other OSM-contributors.

So, shoot!

 

Hi! This is the place to show or tell about some cool stuff you did with OpenStreetMap!

 

HI all,

Sorry for spamming, but seeing that the other OSM-post got quite some traction, I wanted to point out that the OSM-community here is coming to life as well.

You can post your beginner questions into the newbie friday thread or brag about your mapping projects into the showoff sunday thread

At last, please post OSM-related content over there! We need to get this party started...

 

Did you recently (or not recently) map a cool area that you want to show? Something you are proud of? Post it here! A little explanation of why it is cool might help as well.

 

Hi!

OpenStreetMap is a map that anyone can edit and anyone can freely reuse. It has a huge ecosystem, and can thus be a bit confusing to edit or to work with.

I thought that having a weekly thread to ask all beginner questions would be nice for everyone interested, so - go for it!

If you know the answer to a question, please answer (so that I don't have to answer everything).
