#BendingSpoons is a #PrivateEquity firm. #Komoot #bike users should download their already ridden or planned #tracks as #GPX files as soon as possible before they have to pay a lot for them (or even to get a #map update). Better alternatives to Komoot: #Routing with #Brouter , #Cyclers , #VisuGPX or #Valhalla ; (free) navigation with #OrganicMaps or #CycleTravel . Everything else (photos, etc.) is anyway a #socialmedia feature.

I just realised we own an up-to-date map (march 31, 2025) showing locations of all McDonald and Burger King franchises in Greenland.

Hoping it stays up-to-date for many years to come.

#Map Art or Scientific Cartography?

What's a good map application that meets the following requirements?

* It works _both_ on the browser and on the phone.
* It supports walking and driving navigation.
* It allows to save places and see those saved places on the map.
* Based on OpenStreetMap data.

That's it. Those are all my requirements!

Thank you!

A physical geography map that represents different landforms & water bodies found on Earth. It labels various geographical features - mountains, valleys, rivers, deserts, islands & peninsulas - making it to a great educational reference for Earth’s terrain.
From what I understand, it appears to be accurate in terms of geographical terminology.

When I started mapping the first additions in the OsmaAnd app for Openstreetmap at the end of 2015, I never thought I would make 1 million changes. Entered in OsmAnd and then in Potlach2 (because it was beginner-friendly). Then later iD and other apps. Like Mapcomplete, Streetcomplete or Everydoor. 1
I can only recommend just getting started.

**The United States of Europe: a peculiar history of European federalism**

"In 1962, the Democratic German Report, an English-language journal based in the #DDR, published a #map listing the countries in which former members of the #Nazi party were working as ambassadors for the Federal Republic of #Germany. Despite the end of the Third Reich’s reign of terror, the ‘old elites’ quickly re-emerged in the young Federal Republic. Functionaries of the #Hitler regime were appointed to influential positions in the judiciary, universities, the army, and corporations."

“The population center of the US has shifted considerably, moving from the East Coast in 1790 to southern Missouri by 2020.”

“[T]his #map demonstrates how that [middle] concept takes center stage in #geography. Whether by the inescapable march of time or the numerous ways we conceptualize and categorize the #world around us, there’s always more than one way to measure—and map it.”

This week in 1847, the first rescue team reached the famed Donner Party, which had been trapped by snow at a campsite for nearly four months. Of the original 87 members of the Donner Party, 48 survived.
