I'm using OSM data in a fun little app I'm building (mapping out the tunnels in downtown Houston, TX) and I've been very impressed by the tooling. Everything from the OSM site and editors themselves, to related tools like MapBox, Leaflet.js, TileMill, etc.
There are some very beautiful and functional geo-related products out there, and OSM works amazingly well in all of them.
- jamiek88 13y agoI've been looking for a Houston tunnels app. That would be a very useful app! I love hyper local app ideas. Lots of people have asked me for a good Houston tunnel app as I seem to be the 'tech guy' amongst our circle. iOS or Android? I could help publicise this app and help beta test if you like? I'm iOS only but have access to borrow an android phone if need be. How are you handling movement and position checking with no GPS ping? Wifi location?
- ljoshua 13y agoGlad to know there's interest in it! I'm making it primarily because _I_ need it--not easy to find what you need down there. I was always surprised there wasn't one yet, so I decided to make it as a fun side project. Both iOS and Android. I'd love beta testers, you can get a hold of me through my bio.
