osm faster, again

Posted by francoise on 22 October 2010 in English.

don't know who has mapped it, but it was proven again
that osm is a great deal faster than others.
have a look:

there is an article on a local newspaper which was published on 17.10.10 (!) and it is about a long
waited for bypass near Munich:

google doesn't know about it, of course.

greetings

Although West-Flanders isn't so well mapped, OSM is more actual than google maps:

sorry, I copy pasted too fast, it's the wrong permalink, here's the right one:

If you want you can add an entry for new streets like bypasses or others in the OSM wiki at osm.wiki/New_and_Changed_Ways

There is a nice collection to show areas where OSM is really more up to date then "the others".

Especially entries for other countries in the world are very welcome here :-)
