Facilitating access to OSM data

 

OpenStreetMap is a global geographic database that is free, collaborative and open to all. This mapping project allows anyone to use and enhance the geographical information on our planet. Often described as the ‘Wikipedia of cartography’, OpenStreetMap is founded on the principle of free participation and the sharing of geographical knowledge, similar to the way Wikipedia democratises information.
It is in this desire to supportopen data and free software that Magellium Artal Group launched the magOSM tool in 2017. The development of this tool also enables Magellium Artal Group to refine and demonstrate its expertise in digital geography on the OSM project, a must in the world of geographic information. magOSM has notably been presented twice at the annual OpenStreetMap conferences (SotM-Fr) organized by the OpenStreetMap France association and which Magellium Artal Group has been sponsoring for 4 years now.

 

 

Open access services for our land

 

magOSM is a tool offering open and free access to geographic data. It currently offers two services enabling access to data fromOSM and tracking changes made on a daily basis by OSM contributors. These services present information through the prism of major themes (roads, train routes, social structures, regional nature parks, etc.) to simplify its use.

magOSM enables all users, whether professionals, individuals or students, to consult, study and analyse the evolution of thematic data from OSM, in line with our CSR aspirations.

 

 

Simplified access and easy integration

 

magOSM consists of two high-performance services: the WMS/WFS flow service and thechange tracking service.

The WMS/WFS feed transforms access to geographic data, making OpenStreetMap information easily accessible and integrable into external mapping systems such as Web applications, QGIS and ArcGIS. This data is updated every 24 hours, including contributions to the OSM database made the previous day.

MagOSM's change tracking service is an innovation enabling users to view and quantify the evolution of recent changes made to the OpenStreetMap database. This service can be particularly useful for organisations that use OSM data for their day-to-day operations, such as municipalities, urban planning departments and land agents.
