[OSM-talk] Re : Placeopedia replacement

[Yves Buscema]

Hi,

I'm currently working on a project that aim to answer those questions + other on the tourism/free time subjects. I am currently looking for a server to host the site and will describe the project on the wiki by the end of the week.


So it is funny for me to see that such subject could interest some peoples.

Yves

Placeopedia is a project by mySociety, allies to OpenStreetMap. They've used OSM in the Time Travel Maps project .. http://www.mysociety.org/2007/more-travel-maps/

So, I'd suggest approaching them on one of their mailing lists and suggesting the change. Or I believe the code is open source, so you could just go ahead and start a new site. Use Mapstraction to easily switch from Google to OSM.

ce, 
All

I used to use a site called placeopedia that showed a map with
Wikipedia articles located on it. http://www.placeopedia.com/ Quite
useful if you're planning a route and you want to see interesting
sights slong the way

Is anyone aware of a similar openstreetmap replacment?

Cheers

Mike
