Feedback

OpenHistoricalMap has a consolidated issue tracker where you can leave bug reports and feature requests about any aspect of the project. If you need more immediate help, you can also reach out in the #openhistoricalmap channel of either OSMUS Slack or OSM World Discord.

Architecture

OpenHistoricalMap is largely based on OpenStreetMap software that has been deployed via osm-seed.

Some OSM software components have been forked to accommodate OpenHistoricalMap's specialized needs: [1]
