Oh gross.

#Mozilla's latest project is uploading AI slop to #OpenStreetMap.

https://blog.mozilla.ai/map-features-in-openstreetmap-with-computer-vision/

Mozilla (this time @MozillaAI) just keeps on giving: After polluting their own commons with “AI” garbage (ie Firefox with the useless “chatbot integration”), they now tried doing the same for #openstreetmap

This already sucked when Facebook was doing it and it being “open source” doesn’t do anything to mitigate the actual harmful impact (seems that the “commit to OSM” at least was turned off for now, thanks @grischard!)

Wann lernen die User es eigentlich?

Das System ist immer das gleiche!

#User bezahlen für eine App wie #Komoot Xy € und füttern diese #kostenlos mit Inhalt.

Dann werden die #Daten verkauft....

Nehmt #opensource Alternativen rund um #openstreetmap wie #organicMaps, #osmand und viele mehr

Diese #tracken auch nicht und der #Datenschutz ist wesentlich besser!

After some explaining of copyright and licensing, I finally got the field names for the townland of Ballyreddy in Co. Kilkenny from the person who had surveyed them years ago, including some name:etymology. I especially love the Snipe Bog, named after the bird, and the Watery Lane which I only got after following up with him, bc the field is called "Watery Lane Field". It's great to have them as #opendata and accessible now. #openstreetmap #logainm #localhistory

Does anyone know an #OpenStreetMap navigation app that actually is able to take advantage of all the cool information I am adding to #StreetComplete?

Like, I want to press a button that leads me to benches with back rests only. I want a nav option that prefers roofed/sheltered bicycle parking and bus stops whenever it's raining. I want to be able to set that I want to be navigated through well lit paths only. I want to prefer small paths over roads on foot. And so on.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

OpenStreetMap in Ireland has been thriving for years, even hosting our 2nd State of the Map in 2008! Since 2019, OSM Ireland has been a proud Local Chapter of the OpenStreetMap Foundation. Beyond everyday mapping, the Irish OSM community has been actively preserving genealogy, history, and heritage through mapping.

This video is a really pretty visualization of the A* pathfinding algorithm using #OpenStreetMap road network data for #Chicago and #Rome as examples.

#Panoramax intégré à GoMap!, l'app mobile iOS pour contribuer à #OpenStreetMap !

La prochaine version permettra d'ajouter une photo pour documenter un objet et insère un tag panoramax=* pour faire le lien OSM -> Panoramax

The OSM Local Chapters & Communities Congress 2025 (LCCC 2025) is a virtual event where leaders and members of various OSM communities come together to share stories and learn from each other. The next annual congress will take place on 15th March 2025

OpenStreetMap US discovers Craft Mappers, but insists on calling them “Super Mappers”.

> I came across more Super Mappers who reside in cities where they map. These mappers are a tremendous resource as they understand local pedestrian regulations, understand areas of need, and perform quality checks to improve data consistency

If you want someone who can edit #openstreetmap @openstreetmap using satellite data remotely ( #remotework ), I have years of experience adding nodes to absurdly large #GIS objects and maps, adjusting and interpreting to fit satellite imagery. I would love to #getfedihired making maps better for everyone. #opensource rocks!

BIG ANNONCE TIME

Grâce à l'aide précieuse de @sebb, Nantes Végétal dispose à présent d'une carte des restos sur GoGo Carto (basée sur @openstreetmap) pour remplacer Google Maps !

https://carte.nantes-vegetal.fr/map

L'outil va beaucoup plus loin en permettant de filtrer comme sur le blog par régime alimentaire, budget, occasion et type de cuisine.

Chaque fiche resto indique l’adresse, le tél, les horaires, les transports en commun, le site web, un lien vers ma critique etc..

Et la map est bien sûr accessible depuis le blog sous chaque article et via le menu dans la section dédiée.

Thought I had to blame users for not tagging their language properly, whenever I have lanuages I don't understand in my timeline.
Especially following #OSM #openstreetmap .
But it's a feature:
