Description
Maps4Mac
Maps4Mac is a cool app that was made using PyObjC and Mapnik. It's designed to help you render and search OpenStreetMap data stored in either a SpatiaLite or PostGIS database. That means if you're into mapping and need a handy tool, this one could be just what you're looking for!
What Can You Do with Maps4Mac?
One of the neat things about Maps4Mac is that it can handle any Mapnik XML file. So, no matter what map data you have, you'll probably be able to use it!
Importing Files Made Easy
You can load gpx and kml files with ease, which is super convenient for those who track locations or routes. Plus, it even supports GPS tracking using GPSd! However, keep in mind that routing isn't available just yet.
A Quick Tip!
Note: If you want Maps4Mac to run smoothly, don't forget to add osm2spatialite to your Application folder. This little addition makes a big difference.
The Power of osm2spatialite
This tool is actually a Python script that converts an OSM xml or pbf file into a SpatiaLite database. It keeps the format pretty similar to what you'd find in an osm2pgsql database. So if you're working with OpenStreetMap data, this feature will really come in handy!
