Cool, but it there's no links for more info, and it doesn't seem to work in the USA at all.

The project was shared as part of a talk at Graz Linux Tage. You can find it here, unfortunately it is only available in German

If I had a dollar for every time I've seen an American on the Internet assume that anything published in the English language must be US-centric...
rootusrootus•53m ago
Conversely, if I had a penny for every time someone complained about Americans... ;-)
exegete•51m ago
I mean I don’t anyone thought this was in the US since the UI is not in English. Maybe it’s more of, this neat, wish we had it here?
amazingamazing•51m ago
This is an American site to be fair. Mapbox is also an American company.
bravoetch•51m ago
You still wouldn't have nearly as many dollars if you subtracted the times those people were correct in that assumption. Personally I assumed the site would be global. It doesn't have any info though, so I rely on finding out somewhere else I guess.

Is expecting something to work in the US the same as expecting it to be US-centric?
hamdingers•24m ago
It seems pretty weird to use all English words in the domain for a service that offers no English translations and operates in no English speaking countries.
walrus01•22m ago
The Germans and Danes and Swedes and Norwegians I see on the Internet developing and publishing software often have a better grasp of the English language than many born in the USA Americans.
bobomonkey•15m ago
The natives, I'm sure. The recent colonizers to those countries not so much.
moooo99•9m ago
The map is based on international standards and technically it does not restrict locations to German speaking countries.

The authors of this project also shared that they intend on publishing more around this project. This seems to be mostly an early demo that was intended for the live event.

It's based on Car2X/Vehicle2X data that's sent unencrypted and can be received with chips you can order from China.
rootusrootus•46m ago
Will be interesting to see how it fares when it does come to the US. It seems like there are some cars that already have the tech installed. But the US is allegedly more interested in the cellular version, which I am guessing is not as easy to pick up with a simple receiver?

My gut feeling is that this seems like one of those things likely to face a lot of backlash when it becomes widely known.

felixguendling•36m ago
I guess we only find out if some people order those chips and check if there is some data. From my understanding the idea is the same like maps showing air planes or ships (for ships it’s AIS). So without volunteers/pioneers who participate we won’t know. It seems like traffic lights and trams also can send data.

I haven't seen a theme on OSM data look this modern and fresh before. Beautiful color palette and iconography!
stevenhubertron•56m ago
It's a Mapbox theme
mlaretallack•43m ago
Found out about this today, up until now 802.11p hardware is very expensive, and so you cannot easily do anything with V2x messages like CAM or SPAT, but the fact this was done with sub £20 hardware is really interesting.
