"An offline map" might be based on vector data, or map tiles, a combination, or perhaps might combine place-of-interest data from OSM with other maps or data from elsewhere. Which are you considering?

i think it be based on vector map. (similar with this link : http://blog.triposo.com/2011/08/vector-maps.html)

Have a look at the OSM wiki about alla avilable apps for Android systems.

Some of them are opensource and can display maps from offline data, so you can find out how they work.
