• I honestly don't like using most Openstreetmap websites: slow, clunky. Is there a better way to do this faster on my own desktop?

  KDE Marble might be able to do it. Looks like it can open some OSM file type at least. Source: 12 months ago

• Are there any Foss globe apps?

  Marble. It's a KDE app, and it looks very similar to the Google Earth app. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Seeking recommendation: best GIS for viewing KML streamed from external data sources

  The system is intended to receive streaming data with different sensitivity labels and automatically create views/layers that the user is authorized to access. I'm leaning toward a customized version of KDE Marble (https://marble.kde.org/), which makes sense because it's open source and I'm going to need to make it PitBull-aware with the PitBull SDK. But I can still decide at this point between Marble and... Source: about 2 years ago

  I'll reveal that it was "Marble". I thought signing was a thing outside of the Apple store too. I.E. a package can _come with_ a signature or not, even when downloaded outside of the Apple store. I've whitelist installs with the "this one is not signed" intervention in System Preferences. I've also had off-store downloads that did not require that intervention. I believe in the latter case they are signed. Source: over 2 years ago

• 2024: The year of the OpenStreetMap vector maps

  There is a beta of Organic Maps for Linux. Check out bottom of this page: https://organicmaps.app/ I would still want to to know if I can selfhost something of similar, low complexity in my home network. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Apple Maps wrongly lists restaurant permanently closed, costing owner thousands

  I live in a country in Europe where roaming is prohibitively expensive, so use offline OpenStreetMap abroad a lot, with different apps, mostly https://organicmaps.app. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Quairading shire erects signs telling travellers to ignore Google Maps

  Https://organicmaps.app/ is well suited for (completely) offline routing. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Osmapp – A Universal OpenStreetMap App

  Personally I am using [organicmaps](https://organicmaps.app/) which is using OpenStreetMap data, and it works really well. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Why do maps apps have essentially no caching?

  Organic Maps is offline until it needs to download updated map information from Open Maps data. https://organicmaps.app/ Search just finds whatever matches sorted by distance so it may not fit one's needs. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
