Overview
FacilMap is a privacy-friendly, open-source versatile online map that combines different services based on OpenStreetMap. FacilMap offers the following features:
- (Overview over the UI elements)
- Show different map styles, for example maps optimized for driving, cycling, hiking or showing the topography or public transportation networks.
- Search for places
- Show amenities and POIs
- Calculate a route, optionally showing the elevation profile.
- Find out what is at a particular point on the map
- Open geographic files, for example GPX, KML or GeoJSON files
- Show your location on the map
- Share a link to a particular view of the map.
- Add FacilMap as an app to your device.
- Change the language settings in the user preferences.
- FacilMap is privacy-friendly and does not track you.
In addition, FacilMap allows you to create collaborative maps, where you and others can add markers, draw lines, save routes and import GPX/KML/GeoJSON files, which will be saved under a custom URL.
- Creating collaborative maps
- Add markers
- Add lines/routes
- Handle multiple objects, for example to delete multiple markers/lines at once.
- By default, markers/lines/routes have a name and a description. You can define additional fields that contain more detailed information and can automatically influence the style of the marker/line/route.
- Add a legend that shows which colour/style belongs to which type of marker/line.
- Saved views reference a particular area on the map with certain settings. You can change the default view of a collaborative map or save additional views as a shortcut for users to navigate to a certain area on the map.
- Filters make it possible to temporarily hide certain types of markers/lines based on certain criteria.
- Modifications to the map are logged in the edit history and can be reverted if necessary.
- Export the map or parts of it as a GPX or GeoJSON file or as a table.
- Import GPX, KML or GeoJSON files. Importing a GeoJSON file that was exported by FacilMap makes it possible to copy parts of one map onto another.
- Adjust the map settings. This is also where your can delete the map.
