We are thrilled to announce that the OpenStreetMap Foundation has been selected by the Sovereign Tech Agency for a service agreement in the amount of 384,000 EUR over two years to ensure the stability, growth and modernization of OpenStreetMap’s core software.
Magic Earth has traffic and uses OSM data. It’s closed source, but they seem to be one of the better map/navigation companies when it comes to privacy.
Yeah, I know magic earth but as you said, it’s closed source. Also it’s only a navigation app. You can’t easily search and browse restaurants, like with organic maps or Google maps. Not intuitively at least. So you would still need a second app for that.
Their live traffic data’s comes not from OSM. It is not publicly known what their source is for this data.
They say they use crowdsourced data, presumably from users, then “send it to a provider” to combine with other data. Not ideal, but (hopefully) not Google. LOL
I don’t think you can have in-house live traffic data without having many million active users. But it would be nice!
Garmin has for a long time had live traffic data supplied by municipalities before smartphones became popular. But I’m not sure what you meant by “in-house” (surely not literal!).
