Why would one even think otherwise on Lemmy?

I'm surprised that Apple Maps has a community that is pretty much Tue same size as organic maps

Ftfy

Because like, what is there to talk about?

Apple maps takes forever to update new information on maps as someone needs to approve it while Openstreetmaps takes less than 5 minutes to update the database.

I recall a couple of years ago some talk about a new open mapping initiative that Apple or some other big commerical players were going to be involved in. Separate from OSM. What ever happened to that?

It actually exists now.

Data quality isn’t quite there yet. I’m biased though as I’m an OpenStreetMap contributor.

Doesn't Apple maps use osm anymore? There was a time they pulled osm data and used it in their map. That's one big disadvantage of the osm license. Anyone even crapple can use the data.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 4 hours ago

Anyone can use OSM as long as they site the source

I don't see that as problematic

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 8 points 8 hours ago

I think they still do use osm for less covered areas like the global south.
