Viewing OSM Maps

You can view maps using a normal mobile browser on the http://www.openstreetmap.org homepage. It uses special small screen stylesheets, however there can still be problems with the Slippy Map JavaScript code. For a dedicated app allowing viewing of OSM maps, check out the following options, particularly the app's map display features.

Standalone Sites

• johnmckerrell.com/map/ created by John McKerrell with the MultiMap Open API that also shows OSM tiles
• iphone.opencyclemap.org A slippy map through the mobile safari web browser
• Touchscreen-optimized slippy map for the iPhone: osm.planetschmidt.de
• opentouchmap.org OpenTouchMap is a slippy map with basic gesture-capabilities using TouchMapLight. Also supports displaying your current location using the geolocation api and allows to set permalinks.

Libraries that help iPhone developers use OSM maps

• route-me [64] is an open-source library used in a number of iPhone applications to display OSM maps.
• MapQuest iOS Maps API ([65]) - For displaying maps and also routing and geocoding using MapQuest Open services (OSM)
• The CloudMade iPhone Maps Library is an open-source library that provides high-level access to CloudMade's OSM-based map tiles with different sizes and different styles.
• John McKerrell has ported the routing algorithm from gosmore to run on the iPhone and has successfully generated basic routes. More complicated routes crash the iPhone at the moment.
• OSM in Apple MapKit - How to use Apple MapKit and put OSM on top of it as overlay. It has limitations, but you can convert very easily from Google maps this way.
• The MapBox iOS SDK is an open source Cocoa-based library for iOS developers to adapt OSM, as well as any other kind of data, into custom maps while behaving just like Apple's MapKit.

Accessibility

• [66] Apple publishes Accessibility Guide.

Please use! See also:OSM for the blind

Earlier experiments

• native Cocoa based editor [67]
• Back in 2007 Mikel Maron hacked a jailbroken iPhone to use OSM tiles in the built in Map.
  
• (And from the comments of that blog entry, another similar attempt) no osm-layer available at the moment
  
• Another proof of concept slippy map for iPhone, changed from Google to OSM after a nastygram
  
• By breaking a map up into square sections the preview thumbnail acts like a (very) basic slippy-map
  

Related Apps

• iFreeThePostcode, an iPhone client for the Free the Postcode project from UK (source code available).

• RoqyBT, 8???, a jailbreak app that make bluetooth connection to an external GPS. Official apps (osm related & others) can use a better GPS than the internal one.
