Så er Region Hovedstaden klar - den sidste MapRoulette udfordring

FÆRDIG! - Kæmpe tak skal lyde til de 20 frivillige der har deltaget i Region Hovedstaden udfordringen. Der blev skabt ca. 10.068 helt nye veje og stier i undervejs i MapRoulette udfordringen. Det svarer til ca. 428 km at vej/stinetværket er blevet større i Region Hovedstaden. Jeg skriver snart et resume af de 5 regionsudfordringer som har kørt siden 1. oktober 2025. Hvor der kigges på de samlede tal mm.

If you thought you were safe from ads with Apple Maps on #ios, it looks like that may no longer be the case soon

https://www.macrumors.com/2025/10/26/apple-moving-ahead-with-ads-in-maps/

Now is a great time to get plugged into a local community contributing data to the Wikipedia of maps, #OpenSteetMap, so you have better map app alternatives: https://osmcal.org/

Please note that not all events are listed on OSMCal. You may need to surf the internet to find whatever haunt your local group uses be it MeetUp, Peatix, and so on.

There is an absolutely amazing app that makes it super easy to find and fill in missing data: StreetComplete. It’s in the process of being written from Android only to multiplatform. Yes, this means #LinuxMobile support too! So you can help financially expedite things as well: https://github.com/streetcomplete/StreetComplete/issues/5421#issuecomment-2849221573

Apple Reportedly Moving Ahead With Ads in Maps App

Apple Maps could feature integrated ads as soon as next year, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports. In his latest "Power On" newsletter,...

Germany has a lot of roads called "Sackgasse" (dead-end road).

However, some of them have no dead ends at all. What a scam!

I've challenged myself to find them and used the resulting #Overpass query as an example in my workshop today at @FrOSCon.

(the query may need a minute to execute)

I have added a lot of comments to explain how it works, and I have added it to the example queries in the #OSM wiki.

Frage an die #OSM #OpenSteetMap Community:

Ich bin ein großer Fan, semi-aktiver Mapper und regelmäßiger Nutzer der OpenStreetMap.

Jetzt habe ich mir die Frage gestellt, was ich machen soll, wenn ich eine Rezension zu einem Restaurant abgeben möchte. Gibt es dafür eine passende offene Plattform?

PRO TIP for street and outdoors photographers: this website / app lets you determine direction of the sun and footprint of shade at any point in time (if weather permits, obviously). Much fun and very useful to plan your outdoor shoots! Just change the date and slide the timeline to find your best options. Worldwide coverage using @openstreetmap data.

Question: Is there a way of displaying _only_ specific terrain features with #OpenSteetMap ?

I.e. "only forests", "only railroads", and so forth?
