In plain words

Arcane Maps is a blockchain-based navigation application that provides mapping, traffic updates, and location information without storing user data. It allows users to create custom lists of favorite places and share them with others. The service emphasizes privacy by design, offering an alternative to traditional mapping services that log user activity.

    Self-Hosted Maps Stack2022 · maps.ellenhp.me · ▲213

    Over the past week I built a project to let people self-host an entire maps stack so they don't have to send data to the big G. Right now it includes a base map, geocoder and directions server. Currently only bicycle directions are supported, and I'm only hosting tiles for Seattle because I'm unemployed and can't afford to host data for the whole planet. Check it out! https://maps.ellenhp.me/ https://github.com/ellenhp/headway Ultimately I'd like to really focus on transit routing (not implemented) but I'll probably throw a driving mode in there too.
