That's neat. It seems like it isn't available in OsmAnd though, sadly.

- bscphil 3y agoIt's odd given that OsmAnd is the most feature complete OSM app for Android that there are so few custom map styles for it. I know the weird format it uses is a contributing factor (I think everyone else uses Mapnik compatible styles). But I find all the included themes really hideous and haven't found a good alternative. There are really good raster styles for outdoor use, so if anyone has advice on adapting an existing theme for OsmAnd I'd be curious to hear about that.
- lom 3y agoOsmAnd already has a way of showing elevation in the same manner
- thriftwy 3y agoOSM is basically a dataset. Everybody renders this dataset differently unless they are sharing a renderer. Android apps such as Maps.ME and OsmAnd do their own vector renders.
- sva_ 3y agoI think it might be possible via the Online Maps feature by adding an online source, but for that I'd need the url of the source. For example, I can pick CyclOSM as the map tile source both in OsmAnd and on openstreetmap.org.
- thriftwy 3y agoThat would defeat the purpose of having a vector map app.
- lucb1e 3y ago...and add all the benefits of having online slippy maps, yes, nice way of telling the full story I enable this when I want to zoom to a random place in the world without first downloading a 600MB map file, want satellite imagery, or indeed want to view different styles. I wish there was better integration, like being able to also search worldwide with online services when this view is enabled (but it's also not like I got time to implement that myself so I can understand nobody else has gotten around to yet, either).
- matkoniecz 3y agoAs far as I know there is no significant overlap between this two: except that both use OpenStreetMap data as source.
