The name for the project - CoMaps (community, collaborative, common, collective, etc.) - is provisional. We think it's a good one, but would like more people in the community to take part in choosing the final name together!
The project name voting happens at https://codeberg.org/comaps/Governance/issues/34 and will conclude on May 20th.
Sign into Codeberg to vote or suggest a name. People are already signing up in Codeberg to get involved and contribute on the project (including discussing features and reporting bugs).
In the next update we'll announce the final project name!

Big thanks to the amazing projects that make CoMaps possible!
Great ideas thrive in collaboration - when the community joins forces, powerful map experience happen
OpenStreetMap – the global crowdsourced map of the world, the foundation of CoMaps
@OrganicMaps and MAPS.ME – predecessors of the CoMaps project – the code, algorithms and design foundation
Wikipedia – rich descriptions for Points-of-Interests
NASA's SRTM and Sonny's Lidar DTMs - open altitude data for contour lines and elevation profiles
JOSM, EveryDoor, StreetComplete and other Free & Open Source community tools that power map data editing and help keep it fresh and accurate
... and more open datasets and great open-source libraries used in the CoMaps project!

To calculate the "best" routes and more accurate arrival time estimates, #CoMaps assigns so-called penalties to pedestrian crossings or traffic calming features such as speed bumps.
For this to work, the data needs to be available and correct in #OpenStreetMap. On our blog, CoMaps contributor Jean-Baptiste shares some tips on how you can help with improving this data by finding tagging errors, all without having to do surveying in the field!
