EU Alternatives to Google Maps Platform

Google Maps Platform

The Google Maps Platform provides APIs and SKDs for embedding maps, location info, creating custom maps, routing and point of interest data. It is one of the most widely used geospatial and map services worldwide. However, as a non-EU solution from Google, it raises concerns around compliance, privacy and data sovereignty issues for European businesses.
