Hi all,
Please let me know some good application to use vector data of osm on
android phone becase tiles needs a lot of bandwidth to access the maps
easily.
I have tried many applications but not found any satisfactory
applocation
till now.
All the applications availble are third party applications and ask to
pay
for them at some point.
I want to know is there any official osm application for android or if
there is any work going on it.
Unless you are talking about a very small area, say just a kilometer or so
across, I don 't think you are likely to get good results trying to render maps
directly on the phone. Phones are rather limited in memory and CPU speed
compared to even a low-end desktop or laptop computer.
John, you would be very surprised by the vector rendering on some phones:
You can load 1GB pbf of your country in a phone, and browse the map. As
simple as that !
