Powering current and next-generation map products by creating
reliable, easy-to-use, and interoperable open map data

Who is Overture for?

Overture is for developers who build map services or use geospatial
data.

Why Overture?

[icon-1]

Collaborative Map Building

Sourcing and curating high-quality, up-to-date, and comprehensive map
data from disparate sources is difficult and expensive.

Overture aims to incorporate map data from multiple sources including
Overture Members, civic organizations, and open data sources.

[icon-2]

Global Entity Reference System

Multiple datasets reference the same real-world entities using their
own conventions and vocabulary, making them difficult to merge and
combine.

Overture Maps will simplify interoperability by providing a system
that links entities from different data sets to the same real-world
entities.

[icon-3]

Quality Assurance Processes

Map data is vulnerable to errors and inconsistencies.

Overture Maps data will undergo validation checks to detect map
errors, breakage, and vandalism to help ensure that map data can be
used in production systems.

Structured Data Schema

Open map data can lack the structure needed to easily build map
products.

Overture will define and drive adoption of a common, well-structured,
and documented data schema to create an easy-to-use ecosystem of map
data.
