Recommendations for car GPS? Something that works offline and in multiple countries.
I've been using TomTom Go for iOS, got forcibly migrated to after paying $$$ for their previous standalone region apps.
The app thinks my subscription expires today. According to Apple and my credit card, it renewed in May. The only way to contact support is a chat bot on their website, which doesn't work. Forums are full of similar questions. I don't want anything to do with this company.
This is pretty interesting. Source has an accessible description: https://www.mercer.com/our-thinking/career/cost-of-living.html#city-attractiveness
Exploratory #mapping question:
How would you go about making a (printed) map of your neighbourhood for children? Using only data from #OpenStreetMap would be fine, but an own layer would make it even more fun.
What would you include (maybe add for understanding)? What would you leave out? Would you choose a more "graphic" style, and avoid too much text, maybe increase font size? Are there existing styles for such a map? What tools would you use, to let them participate in the process?
I'm eager to hear your ideas!
