[FEATURE] Yandex Maps integration and metro

[KovalRak]

As I understand, project gets all the info from Open Street Maps. Though, it has some incorrect info about russian cities. In Russia we have Yandex Maps, which gives you detailed info about cities (like, literally, it shows everything up to trash bins). I think they have an api (https://yandex.com/maps-api?lang=en). Is it possible to integrate it to the project? I'll add some screenshots to show some interesting features

Also, I'd like to suggest metro generation. Many cities have metro and maps show their routes. Is it possible to generate them like railways or trams but underground?

• it has other countries like Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Middle Asian and Caucas countries, Turkey and Israel (but not so detailed), so it can cover like half of the Eurasia

Yes bro! You literally said what I was thinking

No, it's not possible to integrate Yandex into this project. Yandex doesn't just give away their data to everyone. OSM, I'm pretty sure, is the only source of data for this kind of projects

Hi there, thanks for the great idea!
I have no experience with Yandex Maps, but assuming they don't provide a similar API access to all of the data like OSM, then @zer0-dev is right. I'll nevertheless take a look into it!

They have Tiles API, but it's a b2b feature. They closed to paywall and licensing all maps API after ~2020, I guess (my bachelor diploma was about maps, in 2019 maps API was free for small projects).

I guess then we can close this issue. Thanks for all the information. :)
