The osm ++ maps prepared by TYDAC (WMTS and WMS services) are based on the one hand on OpenStreetMap (OSM), supplemented by (hence ++):

• Copernicus data (EU DEM for relief and contours, Corine for some landuse categoories)
• Open Data of Swiss cantons where available (osm++ alps)

Data is processed at least quarterly and roughly covers the alpine ridge. In addition to osm europe we supplement:

• Buildings from surveying data where available
• More detailed DEM derived data where available: relief, contours
• swissnames: Swiss local names

Tiles of the WMTS are processed down to a scale of approx. 1: 2'500. Data volume is 420GB.

Example:

The data is at least updated quarterly for almost all of Europe (except North Scandinavia and far east). Some key figures:

• Among other things: 100 million “Places” , 50 million road sections, 25 million polygons (land use), 4 million river sections
• Extracted are about 80 POI categories as well as objects such as individual trees and buildings, for example:
  • 850'000 gastronomy companies, restaurants classified according to cuisine (the five most common categories, first and foremost Italian …)
  • 175'000 accommodations
  • 1.27 million public transport stops
  • 1 million park benches
  • 7.2 million individual trees
  • 50 million buildings
  • Last but not least: 80'000 public toilets …

Tiles of the WMTS are processed down to a scale of approx. 1: 5,000. Data volume is 685GB.

Example (Mercator Projection, slightly different zoom levals as in osm alps):

• less details, especially local names
• relief with lower resolution
