OpenStreetMap community

I'm seeing fake roads everywhere, and the map looks like a spider's web.

It's like this on every website that displays the cycleOSM layer: the official cycleOSM site, Openstreetmap, brouter, etc.

I downloaded a map from geofabrik.de and got it as a pbf can I somehow convert it to a PDF. Or is there a website where you can download OpenStreetMap as a PDF.

I stumpled upon an unmaintained list of used shop=* tags for Germany. Link: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Germany/Shops

Since there is https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org there is no need to have this page anymore, which is not updated since several years.

Anybody knows how to delete a page?

It improved slightly with opengl but it's still very slow to render offline maps after years.

Just wanted to share this since I didn't find anything on lemmy about this. It's a pretty cool open-source project that I got introduced to while investigating a google maps / mapbox open-source alternatives for globe representation on the web.

Sorry if it doesn't fit into this community - didn't find a better community to post this and the sidebar says "OSM related software" posts are ok.

Here is a link to their website with examples: https://www.openglobus.org/

I’m referring to the advertising/digital display. I thought of using man_made=advertising + advertising=* but not of the examples on the wiki seemed to match very well.

EDIT:

I feel like an idiot for missing this but I found advertising=screen (1) after posting this

EDIT 2: Fixed the examples link

Edit: ~~the problem is gone, i assume it was a buggy track.~~ The problem exists with the versio 4.7.10, from 24.04.24, which is the version that is recommended by fdroid. It is gone in the latest one from 14.05.24

I updated osmand to 4.7.10 yesterday and now it seems like the little info widget on the bottom screen shows elevation (i assume), relative to the whole track, not the 10km that are currently shown in the widget. Cannot find anything in the settings. In the what's new it said they did some changes to the graphs but i could not make sense of it.

Does anybody know how i can set it back to the way it used to be, as in relative to current section of the track?

People are editing OSM to be able to get their Pokémon and others are changing OSM to mess with people so they can't get them

Recently the city redesigned the street and prepared at least 4 bus stops. The stops all have the road markings and tactile paving, etc. but no bus stop signs yet and currently no line stops there. (There is an ongoing reorganization of bus lines in my area.)

The wiki page describes how to map a bus stop and I can follow along. Everything except the line(s) and the names is local knowledge.

How should those be mapped (if at all)? Map what’s known already and add construction:bus_stop?

StreetComplete is an easy to use editor of OpenStreetMap data available for Android. It can be used without any OpenStreetMap-specific knowledge. It asks simple questions, with answers directly used to edit and improve OpenStreetMap data. The app is aimed at users who do not know anything about OSM tagging schemes but still want to contribute to OpenStreetMap.

To connect simply run:

telnet mapscii.me

I wonder how many I have already mapped.

Pretty cool idea by using open street maps you can download the location you want and play the game there, defend your neighborhood or loot your house.

The reviews seem decent but mention it needs a lot of tweaking as it just released on early access, like water not affecting where zombies can walk or elevation not being a thing.

Maybe this can get some more people interested in mapping

2024: Ordnance Survey now publishes its data in OpenStreetMap format because that’s what people expect

Convert your OpenStreetMap-based application links into Google Maps, Apple Maps or other links (and vice versa) without having to use proprietary software!

osm2gmaps converts links from applications like Organic Maps or OSMand to proprietary maps links, like Google Maps or Apple Maps. Just copy the link and share it to osm2gmaps or copy and paste it inside the app, it will automatically convert the link to your chosen type and copy it to the clipboard.
