Singapore has about 2,300 playgrounds in OSM (leisure=playground), but no easy way for a parent to answer the practical question: is this one any good for my kid, today?

So I built PlaySG (https://playsg.sg): a free MapLibre GL map of every playground in the country, refreshed weekly via Overpass. On top of the OSM base it layers AI-read photo tags (shade, equipment, age fit), Google names and ratings where they exist, live NEA weather and haze, the nearest MRT station, and first-party reviews from parents. No ads, no accounts.

A couple of things I learned along the way: tag coverage is sparser than you’d expect — only ~180 of the ~2,290 OSM playgrounds carry a name, and indoor/wheelchair tags are rarer still, which is exactly why the photo-reading layer earns its keep. On the bright side, the weekly Overpass diff regularly catches brand-new playgrounds within days of new estates opening, which still feels a little magical.

Every playground links back to its source object on osm.org, and the About page credits ODbL. Feedback from Singapore mappers is very welcome — especially wrongly-tagged playgrounds, which the app makes easy to spot (and then fix at the source).
