CreateMaps combines a little Overpass-style querying, a little Taginfo-style tag exploration, and a little Mapbox-style rendering. Ask in plain language or write PBFX directly, style the result on the map, inspect the data, and pass the view around as a link.
show museums nearby and inspect the generated query.
Load a PBFX dataset and query it without depending on the public Overpass API. The goal is fast iteration on real OSM data, including nearby searches and current-map-view queries.
The same interface works for plain-language prompts and direct PBFX query code, so casual exploration and exact filtering can live side by side.
Count tag values like a small Taginfo slice, preview filters from result rows, inspect feature tags, and render coverage rasters when point-by-point results are not the best view.
This makes it useful for QA questions, quick local inventories, and building thematic maps from raw OSM tags.
Add colors, widths, labels, and map overlays directly in the query. The result is not just a local analysis, but a map state that can be shared as a link.
It is still a prototype, but the current shape is clear: queryable OSM maps that are easy to inspect, style, and distribute.
