Location sharing means like viber or skype location sharing or sending current coordinates ? Can you explain more Thanks Thilina, I have no experience with neither Viber nor Skype. But I meant here is the thing we do with Google Maps. It allows us to send the location (where we are) by a dropped pin using SMS and the recipient can open it with Google maps where it shows the route the location of the sender. This is a great feature since we can ask someone to come to a place which we are also not much familiar with.

Is there anyway to share a location by osm based apps in an Android phone and open the same by same app?

Thanks Thilina. I tried the app you mentioned and the Openmap kit as well. I feel the OSM tracker is a very simple and straightforward while openmap kit not easy to use.

GPS වලටම හදාපු උපකරණයක් හරි GPS තියෙන phone එකක් හරි තියෙන්න ඕනෑ. ඔයාට තියෙන්නෙ ඒවයින් මොකක්ද?
me list ekenk hondama eka mokadda? wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/AndroidAnroid phone ekak thiyenne If you have an android phone make sure it has GPS capability. Then get installed "7Ways" app from play store. After that get the Sri Lanka Map from the list. Then you are ready to navigate. Once you complete a tour with the GPS on, normally a .gpx file is created in the 7Ways/userdata/folder in the phone. You can use that file to draw ways where satellite image is not clear.

Hi Sadeepa,
Of course, I am going to map them too. Because Electric charging is a critical factor (For fuel driven motor vehicles, if we ran out all, we can call a Three Wheel Malli, find a can and bring from the nearest gas station). When marking, I used "fast charging" when I know without a doubt. Other points were left saying EV charging station without specifying. Currently there are 5 companies involved in the business (AFAIK), namely:-
1. Spark Electric. 2. Green Frontier. 3. Charge Net. 4. Wasana Traders. 5. LAUGFS Gas.
And 2 more companies are considering the feasibility, namely..
1. Arpico. 2. Mackwoods Energy PLC.
I hope to contact the marketing people of those companies to get full details soon.
By the way, If you all know a place, please mark that and append the my list.

Dear All,If the satellite imagery are blurry, cloudy or insufficient in an area where you are updating, you can request fresh images from MapBox site from the given link. please kindly make requests if you encounter a such area. I think more the number of requests we make more attention we get. (There is no need for a registration or like formality:) .)
Currently I have found a large patch near Nikaweratiya, Giriulla area and made a one request.
When you open the particular page:-
1. Zoom using the +/- symbols at top right corner. 2. Pan using the arrow keys only. 3. Only rectangular areas can be marked using left mouse button clicking diagonally on 2 positions.

Please kindly ask it in their forum on behalf of all Sri Lankan EV users. By the way I came to know that there are a lot of charging places are available in the country than we know. I am planning to mark a good number of them in coming days!!!! In that way we we can popularize the OSM among EV users since they have to drive their vehicles in a very calculated manner.

i changing station is still not rendering in osm . its still proposal. (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Charging_station) how ever i think CG is supporting this category. Since amenity=charging_station is still on proposal, I think charging stations should be marked with following tags amenity=fuel fuel:electricity=yes [ set any other fuels as appropriate ex. fuel:diesel=no ] I also thought of marking the charging points in your way but it does not serve the intended purpose since the electric vehicle owners still cannot search for charging stations by the type of fuel. wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:fuel:electricity
