Quick answer
Thematic, editable maps based on OpenStreetMap
MapComplete has more than 70 maps, each showing features within a certain topic. For example:
- Restaurants, including information about vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and lactose-free options - Shops - Healthcare providers such as doctors, pharmacies, dentists, physical therapists... - Vending machines - Drinking water fountains - Public bookcases - Public toilets - Defibrillators (AEDs) - Bicycle pumps and bicycle shops - Artworks and statues - Benches - Waste baskets and containers - Pubs - Playgrounds - Charging stations - Surveillance cameras - Advertisement billboards - Climbing gyms - Schools - Memorials - Hackerspaces - Ski pistes
When selecting an item, all the relevant information is shown in a user-friendly way. Unknown information can be easily added by answering the questions, which will be saved into OpenStreetMap directly (this requires a free account).
An (anonymous) review can be left for some types of features, hosted by https://Mangrove.reviews, a libre and open data review project. Images are fetched from various sources, such as Panoramax, Wikipedia and Mapillary. New images can be contributed to Panoramax directly from within MapComplete.
How to install
- Download the APK from the button at the top of this page.
- Allow “Install unknown apps” for your browser or file manager only, not for every app.
- Open the downloaded file and confirm the installation.
- If installation fails with “App not installed,” remove an earlier build of the same app first. A signature conflict is the usual cause.
