Are your favourite #shops, #restaurants, bars, or other #businesses still not present on #openstreetmap? You can add them yourself, or perhaps even better, (also) send them a message to let them know that they are lagging behind and that the world is bigger than the googlosphere.

The biggest secret your SEO-guy never tells you about. How to easily get your business on other maps than google maps. #BusinessGrowth #DigitalMarketing #SEO #LocalSEO #Marketing #sales

Thank you for joining our online beginner trainings in January! 💙 The recordings of the iD editor and JOSM sessions are now on Youtube 🎥 tinyurl.com/UNMTrainings... #UNMaps #UNMappers #openmapping #mapping #OpenStreetMap #mappingforpeace #volunteering #GIS #opendata #events #UNvolunteers

Tomorrow (feb 3th, 19h CET) there will be a #HOTOSM ( #humanitarian openstreetmap) #Mapathon / webinar. Want to (learn how to) contribute to #openstreetmap, you can apply through the link below. No strings attached, no previous experience required. #JOSM osmcal.org/event/4230/

Ignorant amoebas remain dependent on 🇺🇸 BigTech maps. Smart people switch to #opensource & 🇪🇺 maps. Amazing people contribute to improvement of #OpenStreetMap. For example for 🇮🇪 tasks.openstreetmap.ie 🇮🇹 osmit-tm4.wmcloud.org 🇪🇸 tareas.openstreetmap.es 🇭🇺 tm.osm.grin.hu/explore 🇪🇺 www.openstreetmap.org

ANY European #marketing or communications agency that invests significant effort into their clients’ (or worse, their own) presence on #GoogleMaps, without even informing them about #OpenStreetMap, cannot be taken seriously any longer. #BuyEuropean, be present on #European maps. 🇪🇺💪

You can ask #Openstreetmap volunteers to add your business to Openstreetmap, using the simple wizard process of "On OpenStreetMap" - a web tool available in eleven languages. Via @weeklyosm.bsky.social

For all the people who DO have the courage to #deGoogle: check buy-european.net/en/alternati... or european-alternatives.eu for a lot of great European alternatives 🇪🇺💪 E.g. try www.magicearth.com, www.comaps.app, or mapy.com instead of #GoogleMaps. #navigation #openstreetmap #maps @comaps.app

Don’t want to be dependent on US BigTech maps? #OpenStreetMap is a community based map. Great in many regions, other regions undermapped, like #KerryCounty, #Tralee. Make it better at tasks.openstreetmap.ie/projects/46 🗺️🇮🇪💪 cc @kerrycoco.ie @anluandunne.bsky.social @ciaraioch.bsky.social

😳 was mij ook niet bekend. Even nader nagezocht, maker is Ilya Zverev, wonend/werkend in Estland (geen idee waarom weg uit ru), openstreetmap ontwikkelaar sinds 2010, source code inzichtelijk via github, .ru server schijnt van hemzelf te zijn. Mss geen directe ‘no go’ maar bezwaar begrijpelijk

Probably easiest way to improve quality & usability of #OpenStreetMap based maps and #navigation apps is by updating current status, website, (and opening hours) of frequently searched points of interest (POIs) like #restaurants & shops. For example with every-door.app for iOS or Android. #osm

There’s a lot of great apps to update specific information on #openstreetmap. And basically everything can be updated through the iD editor on www.openstreetmap.org. However, the most efficient and fast way to do more in less time, is the dedicated #JOSM software: youtu.be/3Yk8b8SB81o?...

Love Ireland? Map it yourself! 🇮🇪 Tired of relying on foreign maps? Help fill in Ireland’s missing spots on #openstreetmap - no experience needed! Every edit makes our map better. 🇮🇪 🗺️💪 #osmIRL tasks.openstreetmap.ie

🇮🇪 An bhfuil grá agat don tír? Cruthaigh léarscáil di féin! Bréan ort a bheith ag brath ar léarscáileanna eachtracha? Cuidigh linn na bearnaí in Éirinn ar #openstreetmap a líonadh - ní theastaíonn aon taithí! Fágann gach eagarthóireacht go bhfuil ár léarscáil níos fearr. tasks.openstreetmap.ie

A great way YOU can contribute to improving the usability of #OpenStreetMap based maps and #navigation apps is by taking and adding photos of POIs. For example via MapComplete.org (adds them to #Panoramax AND links them to #OSM). In addition, you can also add them to navigation apps such as #Mapy.

A great way to update #openstreetmap for your region: check (and update) older POIs of a specific type for your region. For example, all pharmacies in #Niederösterreich that have not been updated for more than 5 years: overpass-turbo.eu/s/2hGO (change area and timeframe, then ‘Run’). #osm #maps

We need YOUR help! 🫵 Are you maintaining (or have you spotted) a website / app using old or incorrect tile.openstreetmap.org tile URLs? There are tens of thousands out there, and they need to be updated. Please check your projects, shared examples, and help us fix them […]

People can use CoMaps for leaving notes on #OpenStreetMap. Those notes can suggest edits that are outside CoMaps' editing capabilities. You can help CoMaps & OpenStreetMap by looking over those notes and fixing them. Learn more about how to do so on our website: www.comaps.app/news/2025-10...

Don’t know how you can help the people of #Sumatera or Thailand ( #Songkhla) after recent flooding, or #SriLanka after cyclone #Ditwah, or #Jamaica after #HurricaneMelissa? Just contribute to better and more complete maps in the area. tasks.hotosm.org/explore?omit... #sumatra #humanitarian #osm

Did you know you can now add an address to OpenStreetMap directly from the CoMaps editor? Every address improves navigation and discovery for millions of people worldwide. Your small edit can make a big difference! #OpenStreetMap #MappingCommunity #GIS #CrowdsourcedData #DigitalCartography

Easiest way to find old (, probably outdated) POI’s in your area: Overpass-Turbo. Like: POI’s > 15y in #Tirol: overpass-turbo.eu/s/2dPR (then click ‘run’). Obviously, change ‘Tirol’ and/or date (3x) in script (and ‘run’) to make results more relevant for you. #openstreetmap #osm #mapping #overpass

Adding missing POI’s, is an important part of improving the quality of #openstreetmap (and #navigation dependent on #OSM). Equally important, is cleaning up outdated POI’s, like removing shops that moved or don’t exist anymore for years. Easy way to find those (maybe) outdated POI’s: 👇

Der einfachste Weg, alte (und wahrscheinlich veraltete) POIs in Ihrer Umgebung zu finden: Overpass-Turbo. Beispiel: POIs > 15 Jahre in #Tirol: overpass-turbo.eu/s/2dPR (dann auf „Ausführen” klicken). (1/2) #openstreetmap #osm #mapping #overpass
