OSM Scout Server

OSM Scout Server can be used as a drop-in replacement for online map services providing map tiles, search, and routing. As a result, an offline operation is possible if the device has a server and map client programs installed and running.

Known Issues

Automatic startup doesn't work, even if it's selected. Currently must be running (visible in the app switcher window) to serve maps. This will be changed eventually. (OSMScoutServer Issue) (osmscout-server seems to be properly invoked by puremaps 2021-07-07)
