OSM (OpenStreetMap)

OpenStreetMap (OSM) is a collaborative project that creates and provides free, detailed digital maps of the world. Volunteers from around the globe contribute information about roads, buildings, parks, and other landmarks using a user-friendly interface. These maps are open access, allowing anyone to use, edit, and improve the data. OSM is widely used for navigation, research, and development of location-based services, offering a flexible and up-to-date alternative to proprietary mapping services. Its data helps improve map accuracy in underserved areas and supports a wide range of applications worldwide.
