During a recent trip to Europe I used OSM (via an offline app called MapsWithMe) way, way more than either Apple or Google maps. Their POI coverage in Europe is pretty good, and even covers things like ATMs and public restrooms.
- davidw 13y agoOSM has - for some places at least - really good topographic data compared to Google maps: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Tavon,+Coredo+TN,+Italy&hl=en&ll=46.360731,11.0816&spn=0.025352,0.066047&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=58.685917,135.263672&hnear=Tavon&t=p&z=15 https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Tavon,+Coredo+TN,+Italy&hl=en... http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/46.3652/11.0953&layers=C http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/46.3652/11.0953&layers=... And worryingly, Google has removed that layer entirely from their mobile application.
