Nodes are points with a geographic position, stored as coordinates (pairs of a latitude and a longitude) according to WGS 84.

OpenStreetMap uses a topological data structure, with four core elements (also known as data primitives): Data structure Illustration of OpenStreetMap data primitives (nodes, ways and relations) Overture is to be complementary to OpenStreetMap, and Overture encourages members to contribute data directly to OpenStreetMap. Its stated mission is "powering current and next-generation map products by creating reliable, easy-to-use, and interoperable open map data." Overture founding members were Amazon Web Services (AWS), Meta, Microsoft and TomTom. In mid-December 2022, the Linux Foundation announced the launch of a new mapping collaboration, the Overture Maps Foundation. According to the organisation, there are several reasons for the move, including "the failure of the UK and EU to agree on mutual recognition of database rights", the rising difficulties in "banking, finance and using PayPal in the UK" and the loss of. In June 2021, OpenStreetMap Foundation announced plans to move from the United Kingdom to a country in the European Union, citing Brexit as the inciting factor. In 2017, DigitalGlobe started providing satellite imagery to aid OpenStreetMap contributions. Chief among these were Foursquare and Craigslist, which adopted OpenStreetMap, and Apple, which ended a contract with Google and launched a self-built mapping platform using TomTom and OpenStreetMap data. In 2012, the launch of pricing for Google Maps led several prominent websites to switch from their service to OpenStreetMap and other competitors. In November 2010, Bing changed their licence to allow use of their satellite imagery for making maps. In March, two founders of CloudMade, a commercial company that uses OpenStreetMap data, announced that they had received venture capital funding of €2.4 million.

Ways to import and export data have continued to grow – by 2008, the project developed tools to export OpenStreetMap data to power portable GPS units, replacing their existing proprietary and out-of-date maps. In December 2007, Oxford University became the first major organisation to use OpenStreetMap data on their main website. In October 2007, OpenStreetMap completed the import of a US Census TIGER road dataset. Sponsors of the event included Google, Yahoo! and Multimap. By July 2007, when the first OpenStreetMap international The State of the Map conference was held, there were 9,000 registered users. In April 2007, Automotive Navigation Data (AND) donated a complete road data set for the Netherlands and trunk road data for India and China to the project.

In December 2006, Yahoo! confirmed that OpenStreetMap could use its aerial photography as a backdrop for map production.

In April 2006, the OpenStreetMap Foundation was established to encourage the growth, development and distribution of free geospatial data and provide geospatial data for anybody to use and share. The first contribution was made in the city of London in 2005. In the UK and elsewhere, government-run and tax-funded projects like the Ordnance Survey created massive datasets but declined to freely and widely distribute them. Steve Coast founded the project in 2004 while at university in Britain, initially focusing on mapping the United Kingdom. History The founder of OpenStreetMap, Steve Coast, in 2009 The database is hosted by the OpenStreetMap Foundation, a non-profit organisation registered in England and Wales and is funded mostly via donations.

OpenStreetMap's adoption was accelerated by Google Maps's introduction of pricing in 2012 and the development of supporting software and applications. TIGER and by tracing permitted aerial photography. Initially, maps were created only via GPS traces, but it was quickly populated by importing public domain geographical data such as the U.S. In 2004, OpenStreetMap was created by Steve Coast in response to the Ordnance Survey, the United Kingdom's national mapping agency, failing to release its data to the public and under free licences.

The OpenStreetMap website itself is an online map, geodata search engine and editor. OpenStreetMap uses its own topology to store geographical features which can then be exported into other GIS file formats.

OpenStreetMap is freely licensed under the Open Database License and as a result commonly used to make electronic maps, inform turn-by-turn navigation, assist in humanitarian aid and data visualisation. Contributors collect data from surveys, trace from aerial imagery and also import from other freely licensed geodata sources. OpenStreetMap ( OSM) is a free, open geographic database updated and maintained by a community of volunteers via open collaboration.
