About
Rapid Editor is an advanced map editing tool designed to revolutionize map editing for OpenStreetMap (OSM) mappers. It integrates cutting-edge technology, authoritative geospatial open data, and advanced mapping tools. The tool empowers mappers of all levels to get started quickly, making accurate and fresh edits. It significantly saves effort by leveraging artificial intelligence to predict features from high-resolution satellite imagery and tapping into open data, eliminating the need for manual drawing of map geometry. AI-analyzed satellite imagery also provides a high-level overview of unmapped and missing data globally, helping to achieve faster mapping speed and higher data quality within the OSM community.

FAQs
What is Map with AI?
“Map With AI” is a service designed for helping the OpenStreetMap (OSM) community. By facilitating mappers with AI-generated features through the RapiD Editor, it helps achieve faster mapping speed and higher data quality.
Who can use it?
The https://mapwith.ai website is open to everyone. However, users do need to have an official OSM account to use our tools and follow the OSM mapping guidelines when contributing to OSM.
Where can the OSM community go to access the tool?
You can access the RapiD editor though the “Start Mapping” links at https://mapwith.ai/.
What is RapiD Editor?
Thousands of mappers use a tool called the iD editor to add features to OpenStreetMap worldwide. Facebook's World.AI team has taken this popular map editing tool and enhanced it. The new tool, RapiD Editor, helps mappers map more efficiently by providing roads auto-detected from satellite imagery and includes additional data integrity checks to ensure the quality of new map edits.
Why does facebook develop the RapiD editor while there is already the iD editor avaiable to the community?
The RapiD editor is simply an enhancement of the current iD tool, so the user experience will be the same with added road-mapping features and integrity checks.
How does Map with AI work?
Using artificial intelligence it predicts features on high-resolution satellite imagery, then they get populated in our RapiD map editing tool.
In which countries is Map With AI available?
Check Available Countries for our currently supported areas.
Has anyone outside of Facebook tried or tested Map With AI?
Yes, we have been testing with partners for months to gather feedback and fix bugs.
Are there any limitations with AI?
While AI is efficient and continues to improve, human mappers are essential to review and manually input anything missed.
Is human validating required for adding roads to OSM?
Yes, every single road from the AI output will be added only after human validation. Mappers must manually select a road to OSM from the RapiD layer so every road will receive human attention.
How can Map with AI improve road mapping for certain communities?
We can take advantage of this technology to aid communities around the world in disaster response areas and where people are still unconnected.
The map and AI roads are not loading for me on Firefox. Is there a workaround?
We have received a couple of reports for such issue and found it could be related to some ad blockers on Firefox.
How can I track RapiD changesets?
All RapiD changesets will include the tag “created_by - RapiD 0.9.0” (or current version number) and assuming the default imagery isn’t changed “imagery_used - Facebook's Map With AI - Maxar Imagery”.
Why do you put a “source” tag on every AI-generated road?
We have been asked by community members before to identify data coming from Facebook services in finer granularity than changeset, so we decided to also tag every AI-generated road.
Is all RapiD data open source?
All data provided through RapiD is open source under the MIT license.
