Merry Christmas!🎄 I have been trying to post more on Bluesky bsky.app/profile/geohac… and not so much here. So join me there and may be it'll be different!
Happy 20th Birthday OpenStreetMap!
"OpenStreetMap has grown exponentially or quadratically over the last twenty years depending on the metric you’re interested in . . . The story isn’t so much about the data and technology, and it never was. It’s the people. " --@SteveC,
Great to see Ola's @openstreetmap adoption over the years finally in production. Congratulations @osm_in! I hope Ola can acknowledge that they are standing on the shoulders of giants. Looks like the APIs use @OpenMapTiles@pelias_geocoder and @ProjectOSRM, along with @Mapbox!

After Azure exit last month, we’ve now fully exited google maps. We used to spend ₹100 cr a year but we’ve made that 0 this month by moving completely to our in house Ola maps! Check your Ola app and update if needed 😉
Also, Ola maps API available on @Krutrim cloud! Many more

This isn't a 100% inhouse solution as stated by the author. They're using MapBox SDK as pointed out by this twitter user.

And when the author says they're spending 0 this month, they're clearly not counting salaries, licenses, and other costs of maintaining this system.
