OSM is a great project. It's the basis for a lot of different tools and as such really needs to continue to be independent from American tech bros.

That is great. Now include satelite images too please.

I'm more interested in decent travel planning for public transport.
-
I get reasonable results from Citymapper and Mapy. HERE doesn't seem to know that buses exist.

This would definitely be doable but only if public transport companies publish their data because I don't see this happening if it has to be imported manually
-
That’s indeed also very important 👍😍

Are you talking about stuff like this? https://josm.openstreetmap.de/mapsview?entry=Hesse+DOP20
According to geoportal.hessen.de Hesse DOP20 is already open data and uses DL-DE->Zero-2.0 license. Though I don’t know how it is in different states/nation wide.

These photos already look better than what Google Earth supplies and they get updated every 2 years.
And technically it surpasses it by far. You might notice that a lot of roofs look a bit weird and pixelated at the edges. They correct the position of high places to counter the camera angle. Generally the angles are also better than what Google supplies.
