It is a mapping service that wants to compete or at least offer a credible alternative to Google Maps. The proposed maps are particularly clear and colorful. The background map used is that of OpenStreetMaps with Qwant superimposed a graphic overlay to improve its ergonomics. The search engine also intends to offer a whole series of additional services in the coming months.
