Whatis OpenStreetMap? ⚡️@takebackourtech | SOURCE Working on a very important video this week on mapping - and of course we will be covering OpenStreetMaps. If you aren't using it yet for personal navigation, you should try it - you would be surprised at the Points-Of-Interests it can pickup, thanks to the million+ contributors. https://www.openstreetmap.org/ OpenStreetMap is a free, editable map of the whole world made by people like you. It was started in 2004 in the UK, out of frustration with the lack of availability of good map data that was free to use. OpenStreetMap includes data about roads, buildings, addresses, shops and businesses, points of interest, railways, trails, transit, land use and natural features, and much more. The map is created and maintained by nearly 5 million registered users and more than 1 million map contributors in every country in the world, using free tools and software. The data is used by local people, volunteer groups, companies, governments, software developers and more. ⚡️Follow |🗣Discuss | 📩Newsletter
