Omniscale Beteiligungs GmbH

KG from Moltkestraße 6a in Oldenburg, Germany, and has been supplying commercial OpenStreetMap-based mapping since 2009. Its core offering is modern, worldwide map data delivered either as a tile service or as a WMS (Web Map Service), designed to be embedded quickly and easily into web, mobile, and desktop applications. The company positions itself on speed, reliability, and freshness of data. It continuously synchronizes its datasets with the OpenStreetMap project so that new buildings and new streets appear promptly, and it markets itself as offering the fastest access to worldwide maps through its tile and WMS services.

Beyond raw map delivery, Omniscale provides supporting products and functions such as plans and pricing, an interactive map, help, documentation and API access, and information on available projections. Users can register and log in to the service. The company also presents itself as part of the OpenStreetMap ecosystem: it states that it proudly supports the OpenStreetMap project as a Bronze Member and is a member of FOSSGIS e.V., the German-language free and open-source geoinformatics association. Omniscale Beteiligungs GmbH is the corporate entity associated with this business. Public evidence describes it simply as a German company affiliated to Omniscale, and the operating brand is presented under the Omniscale name with the legal form Omniscale GmbH & Co. KG. The company is privately held and does not appear to be listed on a stock exchange. Its market is global, with the website noting that it is trusted by companies all around the world.
