Related projects

OsmSharp used to do anything mapping-related: routing, data processing, rendering vector data. That's just too much for one project so we collaborate with other projects in the .NET space:

• NTS: A geo-library, you can use this together with OsmSharp.Geo to convert OSM data to shapefile or filter out some data and convert it to GeoJSON.
• Itinero: Itinero is a routing project for .NET. Orignally a part of OsmSharp as OsmSharp.Routing, now renamed Itinero.
• Mapsui: One of the better mapping UI components in the .NET space. Use this if you need a mapping component!
