Hi everyone!

I do some contributions to OSM and wonder why it’s not building “shortest” possible way (marked as green?

Also, will OSM - OrganicMaps\CoMaps will introduce any time soon ability for public transport routes?

I try OsmAnd+ but didn’t really like it 😥

Upd: Path is diffenetley mapped

Thanks

P.S. The BENCH IS DIFFENETLY NOT ON THE WAY

How about Gnome-Maps? Ppl say they works prety well but only on linux

It uses Transitous, the same routing engine as Bimba. So yes, it should work fine if you're on Linux.

I mean, yeah, but why Organic Maps or CoMaps not take Transitous\Bimba and put it over on existing maps?

[–] balsoft@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

I guess because CoMaps/Organic Maps are "offline-first" maps, and transitous requires you to be online.

There's actually a ticket on CoMaps about this: https://codeberg.org/comaps/comaps/issues/2483

They are considering making a proof of concept that works online, and then putting in some more work to make it work offline too.
