Pardon our dust as OpenStreetMap’s core software projects undergo some renovations! Now a year into the core software roadmap that we debuted in Manila and Dundee, we’ll review some highlights from the past year in the openstreetmap-website project (the Web frontend and API), followed by a preview of things to come in the next several months. We’ll go beyond our monthly summaries on the forum to offer a look into the day-to-day experience of contributing to these projects and how it has improved over the past year.
In addition to highlighting user-facing changes such as the MapLibre migration, we’ll go over more developer-centric topics and behind-the-scenes features, such as our efforts to overhaul GPS trace management, improve privacy protections for GDPR compliance, and provide additional tools for moderators and administrators combating abuse of the site. This is also an opportunity for you to offer in-person feedback to our Sovereign Tech–funded contributors as we dive into the final stretch of that investment.
