in openstreetmap •  4 years ago 

It's the first non-polish post in OpenStreetMap community. I hope that you'll enjoy it.

Intro

OpenStreetMap is a collaborative project to create a map of the world on a free license ODbL. Project in assumptions is similar to Wikipedia. It is an alternative for GoogleMaps where data is owned by corporation.

Mapillary contains crowdsourced geotagged photos. Co-founders were Jan Erik Solem, Johan Gyllenspetz, Peter Neubauer and Yubin Kuang but Facebook acquired Mapillary in June 2020. It is an alternative for Google StreetView. Mapillary has supported OpenStreetMap since the beginning.
