OpenStreetMap for the Web
summary
OpenStreetMap is a downloadable geographic database under a free license and the demo shows concrete tooling and limits: client maps via Leaflet, search and reverse geocoding via Nominatim, fast routing with OSRM (continent routing in ~10 ms) and ad hoc queries with Overpass, editors like JOSM, imports and a rendering stack. Planet XML is ~26 GB compressed, England imports on a laptop SSD take hours not minutes, static-map rendering and the demo apps work but whole‑planet processing needs beefy servers.
