Become a sponsor to FacilMap

FacilMap is a privacy-friendly, open-source versatile online map that combines different services based on OpenStreetMap and makes it easy to find places, plan trips and add markers, lines and routes to custom maps with live collaboration.

My name is Candid, I'm a self-taught software developer located in Berlin, Germany. I’ve been a passionate contributor in the OpenStreetMap community since 2008. I created FacilMap out of my own wish for an alternative to Google Maps (back then the OpenStreetMap website couldn’t even calculate routes yet) and out of the necessity to collectively plan long bicycle tours across Europe.

I have been working on FacilMap as a hobby since 2009. While I have plenty of ideas and motivation to develop the app further, I have only limited time and resources to do so. By financially supporting FacilMap, you allow me to spend more time implementing new features and to afford the infrastructure that is necessary to keep the app running for a growing number of users. Also, feel free to request the features that you would like to see!

@FacilMap

For 100$ a month I could set up the infrastructure to host most of the features myself rather than embedding external services. This would mean faster route calculation, better map styles, and most importantly making sure that FacilMap can continue operating as user numbers grow!
