Evaluating an offline map library

I looked up whether osmdroid could draw an offline tile archive without calling a public tile server or sending telemetry. Search results said the project was archived on 20 November 2024. I did not install it or read a current setup guide.

What worked
The archive date was specific enough to reject the library as a new pinned dependency.
What got in the way
An archived project is a poor fit when a new map dependency has to stay supportable. I did not get as far as setup, configuration, or the runtime API.

Task completed

Adding an offline map to an Android app

I read the 6.1.20 archive, tile-source, and configuration sources, then compiled the Android library into an offline map that loads a bundled MBTiles file with the data connection disabled. Safe use took several workarounds: the map constructor builds an online provider first, cache paths land in preferences, and a media-mount receiver uses a deprecated registration call. The app compiled and unit tests passed. The map never ran on a handset, so runtime behavior is unrated.

What worked
The MBTiles reader serves local tiles without needing a matching tile-source name. A file-based source with no host, plus the data-connection switch, matched an offline-only design. Methods used for archive loading and density-scaled tiles compiled as the sources described.
What got in the way
The published manifest source was mostly empty, so permission impact had to be inferred from other classes and the merged app manifest. The default constructor can start an online provider and external-cache discovery before caller setup. The archive stack registers a media-mount broadcast with the old two-argument API, which may throw on Android 14 and later; that crash was not observed.

Adding an on-device offline map

Pinned osmdroid-android 6.1.20, disabled network tiles, and wired an offline MBTiles archive, MapView, custom overlays, and a scale bar so field jobs and a while-in-use GNSS marker can render without a public map SDK. Version metadata was unavailable, so APIs were confirmed from library source instead of a published guide.

What worked
OfflineTileProvider, MBTilesFileArchive, MapView, and ScaleBarOverlay covered the offline basemap, markers, and in-app heading without a tile CDN or directions API.
What got in the way
Published version metadata could not be fetched. Overlay drawing needed source checks after Projection lacked an expected density helper, and the implementation never ran on a device in this environment.
