OpenStreetMap itself is a project to do with {{tag|maps}}, but interestingly it is applying [[WhatIsWiki|wiki]] principles to map making. Contributors can view the map and then move across to the edit tab and edit the map! The OSM project is modelled on [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]], and like Wikipedia, is overseen by a [[:Category:Nonprofit|not-for-profit]] foundation, and releases all of this map data with an open license; namely the {{tag|Wiki Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike|Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 2.0 license}} (CC BY-SA 2.0). With over 300,000 registered users, it's a very active community of map makers. | OpenStreetMap itself is a project to do with {{tag|maps}}, but interestingly it is applying [[WhatIsWiki|wiki]] principles to map making.
