Does MapFactor use data from other sources than OSM?
  • I downloaded just an fresh update to Finnish map. I have updated some shops in the nearby shopping centre in the OSM pade, but those were not yet included in this update.
    Instea there were several shops, pubs etc that does not show in the OSM -map on thei webpage. Where did them pop-up?

  • As far as I know the free version uses only OSM Database. Please be patient about new mapped things. Mapfactor takes the OSM planetfile at the beginning of a month and converts it. New maps come out arround the end of that month and so it can happen, that new OSM-datainput needs one to two month to be seen on the map.
    And: the OSM-website doesn't show all POI in their database. But you can see them in editor mode if you're signed in.
  • also changes made in June will not be available until July release
