APP OVERVIEW

What is OpenStreetMap and who is it for?

OpenStreetMap is a world map created by people and free to use under an open license. It covers places around the globe and is built collaboratively by contributors rather than a single company. It is used for looking up locations and exploring map data. The map runs in a browser and can be opened as an installable app with minimal browser controls, and it handles a link protocol for opening map links.
