App 3: OpenStreetBrowser

Single Views with Links from VisualBases

All locations in VisualBases have a complete Link to OpenStreetBrowser with the military layer.
Further option: With a copy and paste of the additional coordinates a direct access to the location in Google Maps or Google Earth is possible.
Note: Coordinates within the OpenStreetBrowser are normally slightly different from the copy&paste coordinates. because the first one refer to the display on a typically 1200 x 800 PC screen and the latter are normally pasted from a single place within the location.

Basics about OpenStreetBrowser

Openstreetbrowser.org  is a cooperation of OpenStreetMap and Wikimedia (Commons, Wikipedia, Wikidata, …). OpenStreetMap objects are linked to Wikimedia objects with tags and optional layer like among others “Infrastructure → Military”.
Military tags are visible step by step with zoom factor.
Zoom factor 11: tags of main locations visible
Zoom factor 14: tags of facilities visible
Beginning with zoom level 14 in Openstreetbrowser you can see many facilities, mostly unnamed.
Note: Not all special facilities by definition in Visualbases must have a corresponding military object pin in Openstreetbrowser.
