Social Maps: a user reviews and ratings service for points-of-interest (e.g. cafes) in OpenStreetMap.
I’ve been trying to reduce and eliminate my reliance of the Big Tech and the lack of user reviews and ratings was always a big pain point for me each time I tried to switch away from Google Maps.
I’ve started building a service where users can write reviews and rate “places” (POIs) in OpenStreetMap database, such as a cafe, a museum, or a shop. It’s a quite straightforward CRUD app with bunch of OpenStreetMap-specific features such as logging in with OpenStreetMap and querying places by their OpenStreetMap metadata.
It’s still in active development but it has good docs, a great API reference (including an OpenAPI spec), a demo app with the entire planet imported and queryable, and an early stage Android SDK.
