OpenStreetMap for the web
This presentation introduces OpenStreetMap and explains what sort of rich data set it has. It also covers different APIs for using map tiles, as well as other APIs that form sister-projects to OSM, such as Nominatim (search), routing, and obtaining current-location information. Some hints on storage and searching will also be given.
