OpenStreetMap Foundation

The OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF) is a nonprofit organization that supports and promotes OpenStreetMap (OSM), a global, collaborative project where volunteers map and share geographic data such as roads, buildings, and natural features. OSM functions similarly to Wikipedia, relying on community contributions to create a detailed, accurate, and freely accessible digital map of the world. The foundation provides the necessary infrastructure, software, and community support to ensure the project remains open, reliable, and sustainable for everyone—from individual mappers to developers and organizations relying on open geographic data.
