If you actually care about crowdsourced information, please consider contributing to your local area in OpenStreetMaps. There's way more to crowdsourcing than just avoiding speeding tickets!

[–] MasterBlaster 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Indeed. I update it regularly through OsmAnd. It even has a google traffic overlay. Waze users can slide over to Magic Earth and start reporting traffic, construction, and speedvtraps over there and automatically start using OpenStreetMaps!

To clarify, does Magic Earth let people mark cops?

If so I assume it only works well in larger cities?

[–] MasterBlaster 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, you can report police cars. The problem with crowdsourced data, is it requires a crowd. This is why I encourage everyone to hype Magic Earth to people who love waze.

I didn't know about this, thanks for letting me know! Definitely prefer providing information to non-proprietary software
