With solidary.city I startet a web application to find places where you can participate in city life without papers and / or money.
The most fruitflully database is of course OSM. At the moment the following tags are processed:
Camping and caravan site with no fees: ["tourism"~"caravan_site|camping_site"][fee=no]
Drinking water: [amenity=drinking_water]
Fitness stations: [leisure=fitness_station]
Librarys: [amenity=library]
Parks: [leisure=park]
Showers: [amenity=shower]
Toilets: [amenity=toilets]
WLAN Access Points: [amenity=shower]
I am thinking about the following other tags:
Food: [“social_facility”~“soup_kitchen|food_bank”]
Goods: [“amenity”=“public_bookcase”]
Goods: [“social_facility”=“clothing_bank”]
Any other ideas are welcome!

An other project is https://www.pumpipumpe.ch/ for free sharing of household items. I also don’t know if they have an open api.
I created a map that shows free facility and offers based on OSM data: https://priceless.zottelig.ch
Over the info button (i) you can find the OSM tags and the overpass query I use. Perhaps there is something that matches your focus.
Interesting concept. I’m quite irritated by the overlay when clicking a POI. Don’t make it fullscreen and make it a least a bit transparent, because now it punches you in your face.
Another thing i noted “Translated by google” - not a big fan of that, but i understand it might be easy to use. Why not translating it manually via strings and with contributions? Transifex or https://weblate.org/de/ or something like that?
Hi Markus,
Thanks a lot for the inspiring links, especially for your great priceless application. There are a lot of amazing project out there in the sense of a Solidarity City (predominant on a local level). I tried to do a link collection here and added your project: https://solidary.city/maps.html.
Best regards,
Martin
Hi Negreheb,
„Don’t make it fullscreen and make it a least a bit transparent“
The webapplication is yet only optimized for mobiles, I will put this on the TODO list.
Manually translations are possible with the editor. If you like to contribute please send me a PM for an account. Translations are also possible for languages which are not supported by Google, e.g. Central Kurdish (Sorani) – ckb and Southern Kurdish (Pehlewani)- sdh.
Best regards,
Martin
This is very cool! But now I don’t know if I should use solidarity.city or priceless.zottelig.ch, or which one to recommend to others. Shouldn’t you work together?
Sorry for the late reply. But I do not see any competition between the web applications, as the focus is quite different. I like & use priceless a lot, and it is definitely the better choice for viewing OSM data. The focus of the SolidaryCityMap is more on „events“, like medical care for free & all. But unfortunately there is not so much input from the communities at the moment.
Thanks a lot for your input! Now the following data is now integrated: SuspendedCoffees.com - suspend or get o coffee (or whatever on the menu)
Pumpipumpe.ch - a sharing community
