Elevation-aware routing can help you seek or avoid challenging paths for bicycles, pedestrians, etc.

And we make it easy to return elevation data for each leg of your route.

OpenStreetMap turns 21! Happy Birthday! CoMaps would not be possible without all the OSM people, the community is amazing!

Hey, who wants to go to the #cinema in #Hanover? If you think that sounds like a good idea, don’t use a #map app that automatically scrapes #Wikipedia for locations to find one – unless you’re fine with watching a film on #AppleTV instead. Because where once was the historic cinema Palast Theater is now an #AppleStore.

(The cinema shut down before #OpenStreetMap even existed, so don’t blame them!)

I have a question about mapping tools that can help with local activism/organizing/campaigns.

I am currently using Google Maps to plot individuals at various addresses. (Easy to import data to the map, I can share this with others, etc.)

But there is a problem. If there are multiple individuals with the same address, Google Maps only puts one pin at a given address...and no additional symbology/color to show you that more than one pin is plotted...even if you hover over it or click on it...only the top pin is shown.

What other mapping tools (that I can easily share with others) can properly display multiple pins at a given address?

(This question also opens the door to other features...can field operatives make updates in real time and share to a central data source/server?...and more and more.)

As always, for grass-roots stuff...free is best, lowest cost is next best.

Feel free to boost.

Thanks in advance!

@openstreetmap folks: I made a JOSM preset for entering direction/destination details on street and trail direction guideposts. I've made sure it also works in Vespucci

A great new initiative. Electricity – like public transport – is a lifeline for equity and development. If you can’t see them, you can’t improve them.

Decided to try out @MapComplete app during my holidays in Italy, and completed "a few" challenges. Was fun and interesting to find the answers to some of the questions.

Did not expect to reach the 2nd place for the last 7 days , excluding some edits I directly entered via @CoMaps

Global Fishing Watch is now using infrared data from NOAA's VIIRS satellite to locate fishing boats on the high seas that have their Automated Identification System transponders turned off (presumably because they are fishing illegally). The system is sensitive enough to distinguish between North Korean and Chinese squid fishers, which use different lights.
