The Path That Went Viral
ایہہ 10؍July 2025ء English وچ «UrbanRoaming» لیکھ چھپیا گیا سی۔ ایہہ 13؍July 2025ء تے پہلا نواں کرنOpenStreetMap went viral! Well, sort of.
A recent Instagram video highlighted an area where Pokémon Go had better trail coverage than Google Maps. You can see for yourself:
Currently, the video has over 12.6 million views and 733 thousand likes!
As you probably know, Pokémon Go uses OSM for its map data. So it’s cool seeing it acknowledged that OSM data performed better, even if it was misguided as a compliment towards Pokémon Go/Niantic.
With a little bit of searching, I found the path that they were on: Way #518694188. Added 8 years ago by BikeRoad.

Here less than 5% (let alone 1%) of people will recognize it as OSM data.

It’s just nice to know that the data is helping people.

@Le_Sharkoïste agreed! But it’s fun to see OSM edits appreciated either way!
