Features & Capabilities

OpenSwitchMaps is a versatile Chrome extension designed for effortless switching between popular map services including Google Maps, OpenStreetMap, Mapillary, and others. It facilitates quick navigation by allowing users to open various map platforms at the exact same geographic location, enhancing productivity for cartographers and OpenStreetMap contributors. The extension also integrates several OpenStreetMap quality assurance tools such as Overpass Turbo, Osmose, and KeepRight, streamlining map comparison and data validation processes.

Users can customize their experience by showing or hiding specific maps through intuitive settings accessed via right-click on the icon. The tool supports a wide range of map sources, encompassing standard maps, OSM-specific tools, and other specialized maps like Flightradar24, MarineTraffic, and Old Maps Online. Designed with user convenience in mind, OpenSwitchMaps opens selected maps either in the same or a new tab, based on user click preferences, making it an indispensable tool for mapping enthusiasts and professionals alike.
