the questions are :



1. why is there so much information missing on openstreetmaps?

2. why are the names very small, complete unreadable on gps device?

3. why are the roadlines so thin?

Hi,



1. why is there so much information missing on openstreetmaps?

-> because nobody has entered it until now. If you live near this place or make holiday there, you're invited to add the missing data.



2. why are the names very small, complete unreadable on gps device?

-> probably this depends on your device and the dpi it has. When you use mapsforge based maps you can choose different styles to adjust to your device,

eg openandromaps and the themes there: http://www.openandromaps.org">www.openandromaps.org
