Products that do what Geocoding and Map Tiles SaaS does
Hi everyone, We at NetToolKit are launching a new geocoding and map tile service and we would love your help. You can compare the accuracy of our geocoders against several others at https://www.nettoolkit.com/geo/demo and you can find out more about the service at https://www.nettoolkit.com/geo/landing. We’re looking for help primarily in two areas: assessing the accuracy of our geocoder and figuring out what it would take to sign up customers. For the first area, anyone who is familiar with US addresses can help by visiting…

I've recently been working with real-time geoJSON data at a rate of 50+ queries per second. SaaS solutions can be prohibitively expensive at this rate, thus, I created go-reverse-geo. Data is pulled from geonames.org and is stored in MongoDB (a requirement of my current project). It is very much a work-in-progress (I wrote it this morning). Hope someone finds it useful. https://paranoia.dev/vivi/go-reverse-geo

I find myself often texting people, "where are you?" so I wrote this little iPhone app that lets me text them a special link. When they click the link, it uses the HTML5 geolocation API to report their location and shows it on a map. http://whru.at/ It's only as accurate as the HTML5 geolocation API, but I've been finding it pretty useful. What do you think?

Hey there, I'm an OpenStreetMap enthusiast and I was curious what kind of impact the app I am using has (I use StreetComplete[1], an easy-to-use Android app to add missing information). I couldn't find data for all my questions and some were not up to date, but I found a few starting points on how to do it myself[2][3]. Soon I realized that many more interesting questions about OpenStreetMap in general could be answered with the data and I created a website (https://piebro.github.io/openstreetmap-statistics/) to show them. Since I want the data to be up to date, I added a…

Originally begun as a sort of 'weekend' project, it has been a bit of a struggle, but finally I think we've brought it to a state where I can request reviews, feedback etc.: http://GetLocalNe.ws Please feel free to report bugs/problems or post feedback/suggestions on any aspect of it. Geolocation accuracy (or inaccuracy) reports will be highly appreciated. Quality of data is being rigorously assessed now, but the current data should be at least reasonably okay. Please let me know otherwise. Work on identifying and integrating XML/RSS feeds from news sources is on now and this will be…

Hi HN. I had faced an issue where I wanted to know how a place I was travelling to looked like. Like everyone else I looked at google maps and snap chat too. But Google streetview images were usually old and snapchat snaps lacked control. So I built GeoQuests for anyone who wants to know what’s going on on Earth. You drop a quest at a real location. People see it on the map, go there, and complete it by taking a photo when they’re close enough. The app checks the image's GPS coordinatee, time of the image and if the image fits the request's description. I am using Gemini to verify the image.…

Hey everyone, I wanted to share what I have been working on recently. I had this itch for a long time to figure out if terrain contour matching could help with ground navigation, by only only relying on iphone's sensors and public data. So far I have had decent results. This is a working prototype, but there is a lot that is in the pipeline. If you notice anything weird, let me know or open a PR. Any feedback, comments are welcome :)

Hello HN, I made a website where you can find toilets nearby on a map. It has data for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. I fetched the data from openstreetmap with overpass API, cleaned it up and stored it in a supabase DB. In case there was no address, i used nominatim API to geocode it. Feel free to ckeck it out. Happy for feedback. Jan

I recently developed a JavaScript library that determines what San Francisco neighborhoods and/or districts someone is in. The application is served from Google App Engine so if no one is using the application the server instances are shut down and your first couple queries might be slow. But after a couple instances are spun up it performs quite well. The example application is just an example so it's not very sophisticated or pretty to look at. For the example to work properly it must run on a device that supports the HTML5 geo location API such as an iPhone. If you get chance take a…

This is our Atlas of Water Science. It's a globe mapping water science that colleagues have done over the past few years. Approx 300 papers got analyzed. The pipeline sends open access papers to an LLM asks the LLM to extract areas relevant to science in a form suitable for a geocoder, then we use a geocoder to get lat lons. When things happen in the same spot we jitter the locations a bit to differentiate things. gpt4o-mini was used for most of the analysis. Some of the features on the website are directly invented by Claude. There are some errors when geocoding went wrong or locations were…
