How does the CoMaps project differ from Organic Maps and Maps.Me? Unlike Organic Maps

CoMaps is "owned" by a not-for-profit co-op, and fully volunteer-driven by the community. The project operates by these principles:

Transparency
Community decision-making
Not-for-profit
Open source
Privacy-focused
Community Funding
Assets for Public Interest

You can learn more about our governance approaches on Codeberg.

The structure is intended so the app and assets cannot be sold for profit. The community actively participate in decisionmaking and governance.
