Maps.earth – free and open-source web maps
This is very interesting (and impressive work). I've been thinking for quite some time that it would be very useful to have a local map server for offline use.A lot of applications need to show data related to location (e.g.: a photo app might want to show a map of where a photo was taken). Having a local service to resolve these would be superb.I know this product has a different goal, but I wonder if the backend side of it could actually fill in this role. Essentially exposing location/mapping services to local applications.
