OpenStreetMap
OpenStreetMap is like Wikipedia for maps. It's built by the community using aerial imagery, GSP devices, or existing public domain maps. The maps can be viewed or edited online in a browser, or using various apps.
Some links
- Viewing the Maps: osm.org or openstreetmap.org
- App for Android, iPhone, Linux: https://organicmaps.app
- Editing Info: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org
