Description

Wikimapia is an online mapping tool that allows users to explore, view and edit geographical information about any location in the world. It is a collaborative project that aims to create and maintain a free, accurate, up-to-date and comprehensive map of the world. The project was started in 2006 by two Russian programmers and has since grown to become one of the largest and most comprehensive online mapping resources available. Wikimapia provides detailed information and images about geographical locations, buildings, bridges, monuments, parks and other places of interest. It also allows users to submit and edit data about any location, such as adding photos, descriptions, and other information. All of the information is freely available to anyone and can be used to create highly detailed maps. The website also provides an API, allowing developers to access and use the data in their own applications.
