題目: [Hackmeeting] sempre a proposito di apple-OSM
Welcome, Apple!

Yesterday Apple launched iPhoto, its photo management app,
for the iPad and iPhone… and we’re rather pleased to
find they’re the latest to switch to OpenStreetMap.

The desktop version of iPhoto, and indeed all of Apple’s
iOS apps until now, use Google Maps. The new iPhoto for iOS,
however, uses Apple’s own map tiles – made from
OpenStreetMap data (outside the US).

If you don’t have iPhoto, you can view the maps using this
unofficial viewer from Dair Grant or a transparent
comparison from Ivan Sanchez.

The OSM data that Apple is using is rather old (start of
April 2010) so don’t expect to see your latest and
greatest updates on there. It’s also missing the necessary
credit to OpenStreetMap’s contributors; we look forward to
working with Apple to get that on there.

But we’re delighted to see another prominent map user make
the switch to OpenStreetMap, and look forward to many more.

ciao.
