Any #OpenStreetMap and #OSMAnd experts here?

I want to search for multiple main tags (restaurant, cafe, fast food, bakery, ...) with the subtags vegan=yes/vegan=only

This does not seem to be possible!

A simple search does not work for tags, just for name or main category.

It is really tedious to find #vegan food currently, no matter how well mapped a city is.

Gibt es einen (bevorzugt einfachen 🤓) Weg, #OSMand (oder von mir aus auch eine andere im Wesentlichen auf Offline-OSM-Karten basierende Navigations-Äpp) mit aktuellen Verkehrs-Informationen zu versehen? Lieber mit so was wie https://verkehr.nrw¹ als mit Google-Daten (denn Google will ich ja loswerden), und natürlich bevorzugt so, dass auch das Routing sie berücksichtigt, aber gern auch nur informativ.

¹) aber verkehr.nrw wird auf AWS gehostet − ist also keine Option

@gerdcastan Danke 🫶

Alternative / Hack auf Android: in #OsmAnd einen Suchfilter für "outdoor seating" einrichten. #SaubereLuft #TeamVorsicht

@rupdecat

Routing seems slightly better - I tested 3 routes: 1 worked fine (it showed me the multiple options I expected, but didn't have live departure times), 1 didn't work (but that was because the destination wasn't on #OpenStreetMap - have now added it), and the third didn't work for unknown reasons (it showed "no result found" while #GoogleMaps quickly suggested a few viable options)

#OsmAnd

@rupdecat
Nice. I can get "OsmAnd~" on #fDroid and I'm just testing the search and routing on that (it's unclear how/if that differs from OsmAnd or OsmAnd+).

Je confirme ce que dit @sebsauvage, troublante ressemblance avec #Waze et perte d'un certain nombre de choses, même en version Premium, telles que de nombreux styles de cartes.

Avant, j'aimais franchement l'UI de #MagicEarth, par-dessus celle de #OsmAnd… mais là, ça pourrait s'inverser. Malgré tout, la supériorité de Magic Earth est la prise en charge des embouteillages (énorme plus) et assez complète et fiable des transports en communs.

Alternative a Google Maps

Ecco tutte le alternative a Google Maps che abbiamo provato e selezionato per voi, parliamo anche di navigazione e trasporti pubblici!

https://www.lealternative.net/2019/10/25/alternative-a-google-maps/

Here is what is missing in the popular #OSM based #FOSS apps (#OsmAnd, @CoMaps & @organicmaps) from being a potential replacement for GMaps.

1. Photos & Reviews are two most important things that are missing right now. @mangroveReviews and @lib_reviews are here to fill the reviews gap. #WikimediaCommons, @panoramax are here to fill the photos gap.

2. Crowdsourced Real time Traffic data. I couldn't find any #opendata platform yet. Though I saw an empty repo created under the CoMaps project. 🤞

I wasn't be able to found a lot of #dragons , Linux/BSD folks, niche hobbyists, my local hackspace (and knowledge about hackspace culture at all), music, films, books, etc at all.

I remember life without the Internet and it was shit life — one source of information (government backed TV), few friends, some books, some video cassetes and thats all. A lot of hobbies were very hard to start because there are no necessary books in bookstores, necessary materials weren't sold in usual stores and you simply didn't know about specialized stores in town.

BTW, our government periodically make "days without the Internet" to "protect" "citizens". And it is bad days — all plans to meet with friends and to buy some food in stores became broken, because we can't plan anything reliable without the information about closing hours, street jams, can't order some food for party, etc.

Luckily, the #OpenStreetMap and downloaded maps in #OsmAnd saved me. But I can't even buy the water because all stores here connected to the Internet to check special "excise marks" (QR codes unique for each bottle to trace it's path from factory to the consumer, and every sold item should have updated record in the main store's DB becaue … there are big fines for selling some items — alcohol, cigarettes, water, food for childs, juice, etc — without these QR codes).

If you ever wondered, what the "remarkable stone" is under node 7908021998 on openstreetmap, here a picture.

Did you know? #Denmark has over 3,700 shelters (shelter_type=lean_to) mapped in #OpenStreetMap!
Many of these are found in peaceful, scenic spots. Together with numerous primitive campsites, they make up for the fact that we don’t have the same Allemandsret (Freedom to roam) as our Nordic neighbors.

Want to find them while out and about? Apps like #OsmAnd (using OpenStreetMap-data) make it super easy to explore and navigate to these (usually free) shelters and tent spots.
