OSM.org is a Wikipedia in maps, but drawing roads and buildings is just a half of it's success. What do the regular user need? POIs - thats what they all are looking for on maps and how to get there. But how OSM can get all this huge data? Only users with local knowledge can do it. We at MAPS.ME created a simple map editor inside the app and boosted OSM with POIs data. MAPS.ME is #1 mobile OSM editor in the world and we proud to be a part of a big open SOM community making the world maps free for everyone :) Use MAPS.ME to improve the map and make the world better :)
