Marcus LundbladMaking more things directly “clickable” in Maps, like streets…Another idea as a follow-up on this to add functionallity to the highway shield library to be able to get a paintable object given a place' network tags. So that we could show that instead of the generic “car” icon for roads when available.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/gnomemaps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gnomemaps</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/mapstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mapstodon</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/openstreetmap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#openstreetmap</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/gnome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gnome</a>

Marcus Jaschen<a href="https://mstdn.social/@ch33sus" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ch33sus</a> OpenStreetMap selbst kann das nicht, denn es bringt kein Geländemodell mit. Ich habe mir letzte Woche tatsächlich auch die Frage gestellt, wie man die Wege einer Region finden kann, auf denen man einen größtmöglichen Anstieg auf kürzestmöglicher Strecke zurücklegen kann (was ja die Suche nach Wegen mit der maximalen Reliefenergie ist). Kombination eines Geländemodells mit <a href="https://skylightaccess.de/tags/openstreetmap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenStreetMap</a>-Highways quasi. Müsste nur mal jemand bauen ;-)

Sunset Sakura (:osm: Nelson)Google Maps (and Apple on iPhones) have a monopoly over digital navigation. Their product is genuinely very good, with only some shortfalls. I would like to see a world where there is an actual competitor to Google Maps, based on OSM data, but the current two apps - OsmAnd and Organic Maps - are good but not great. This is mainly due to popularity (low funding + contributions) but there are many things they don't provide.

Sunset Sakura (:osm: Nelson)I love contributing to OpenStreetMap - it's one of my favourite hobbies - but there are many ways that it falls short when providing navigation apps, especially when compared to Google Maps. Over the next few weeks I'm going to be collecting my thoughts on the topic and posting them here.<a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OSMMusings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OSMMusings</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OpenStreetMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenStreetMap</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OSM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OSM</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Navigation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Navigation</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/GoogleMaps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GoogleMaps</a>
