When you are online there are several ways to view the map. Like paper maps, you can choose from different maps covering the same area. The choice usually depends on the personal preference of rendering or the purpose for which you'll need it (hiking, cycling, tourism). The options listed here might highlight different information but they have one thing in common: they are all based on the free geographic data of the OpenStreetMap project.

Variety in map styles

OpenStreetMap is all about variety and different ways of using geographic data. To highlight this, below is a selection of different styles of rendering the OpenStreetMap data to web based maps. You will find more here: List of OSM based Services
