+ In today's world, location and maps information is more widely used, be it
+ to look up nearby restaurants or plan commute to the office. With Qt,
+ it is now possible to cater to these usecases by consuming map data
+ provided by the third-party vendors. The \l{QtLocation}{Qt Location} module
+ provides the APIs and the necessary backend to fetch map data from some of
+ the popular third-party mapping solutions. Here is a snapshot of the demo
+ application running on Android, presenting OpenStreetMap data from
