This OsmAnd plugin includes a lightweight map style that highlights road and trail conditions for off-road motorcycles.
- Color-coded Roads and Paths: Easily distinguish roads and paths based on their physical or access conditions.
- Consistent Road Representation: Roads and pathways are displayed as straight lines (no dashes), with widths based on their classification.
- Obstacles Marked: Dead-ends are indicated by black dots, and barriers by red dots.

In the free version of OsmAnd:
- Elevation data (Contour lines and Terrain) is not shown.
- OSM country datasets are updated once a month.
For enhanced outdoor exploration, consider a one-time or yearly subscription to enable:
- Elevation data.
- Hourly OSM dataset updates.
Note: I am not affiliated with OsmAnd and do not receive any revenue from this plugin. After extensive research and experimentation, OsmAnd proved to be the best platform for creating my own maps.
The OsmAnd Live feature is extremely useful for preparing maps before a trip. For example, you can add missing tracks via satellite imagery to OpenStreetMap. Your changes will appear in the OsmAnd application within an hour.
