If you're familiar with OpenStreetMap (OSM), you already know it’s a global community that provides free, crowd-sourced map data. OSM contributors work together to create maps that are as detailed and up-to-date as possible. At calimoto, we use OSM data as the foundation for our maps, enhancing it with our own updates and features. But we can’t be everywhere at once and may not always have the latest information for your adventure. So if you notice inaccurate road data or missing information, you can actively support us by adding it to OSM.
How you can help:
For Android users: Try the "StreetComplete" app. It’s an easy way to add or update street data for your local area.
For iOS users (or anyone else): Check out the Beginner's Guide for tips on getting started.
You can, for example, add information about the road surface or the opening hours of shops. Your contributions are invaluable, as updates – especially those related to road conditions—will be reflected in our route planning with the next map update. This not only contributes to the improvement of our maps but also helps all OSM and calimoto users. You can find more information in this Wiki.
Why your help matters:
The world is always changing, and up-to-date information is key to accurate maps. When you enhance OSM data, you’re improving calimoto maps for the entire riding community. Better maps mean smoother, more enjoyable rides for all.
Thanks to our community ❤️
Collaboration with the OSM community and the use of StreetComplete are an essential part of our work. We’re incredibly grateful to our riders for supporting the continuous improvement of our maps. Your efforts help us provide the most accurate, rider-friendly navigation possible.

Data provided by TomTom is incorrect and I cant't find a way to update it.
After a new section of motorway tunnel was completed on the E16, west of Oslo in Norway, the old road (now No 168) became a very nice motorcycle road. However the map shows it as closed. The app must be forced to route through it. I rode it yesterday and it's not closed. It has some sections that are beeing upgraded with roadworks and some reduced speed, but is still passable, and in my opinion a far better motocycle road than the four lane motorway throught the mointain.
