Isn't this exactly what OSM is, only now as navigation as a startingpoint? Looking at the map in my area (the Netherlands), I see OSM some 6 years ago.<br>

It seems all so superfluous to me, I don't see the point. Why not make a navigation app based on OSM? There are several already.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div style>I've used Waze quite a bit, as it's honestly the best navigation app for my wife's iPhone. Waze is only concerned with the road network, nothing else. They do a great job of keeping the data up to date, and have very good traffic information, thanks to their millions of users. If there was an OSM based solution with traffic info, I would use that in a heartbeat.</div>
