Brb adding some more local info to the map, free for everyone on earth to use as they see fit!
Thank you for your contributions 🍻
I use it, but it's screwed me so many times on construction shit. Like it or not, Gmaps live info is lightyears better.
Me when I go to an area on holiday, and there is lots of fun mapping to do.
Mother in law moved to a small town so I have another mapping project
Also my reaction when I, as a mapper, see a place that hasn't been touched in the US aside from the original TIGER import.
The hallways and stairs in my school are mapped. Heck, a demolished building was updated in OSM faster than the map on the school's website
Me when I notice that Helsinki's public transport app uses OSM and you can just search for connections to a place of interest as if you were using CoMaps.
Any tips on how to learn to use JOSM? I feel that I should take the leap from iD, but the learning curve is scary
JOSM is very powerful and responsive to use though it takes time to learn. I have used these resources to figure it out the tool.
Thank you! These'll find some use
@mapu @Sunshine I think the best way to learn JOSM is just to start using it, and work out how to do things as you need to. I still kick myself every now and again when I discover some new feature I didn't know about. Do check out the different modes at https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help/Menu/Mode though. In particular, 'W' mode is awesome for correcting/improving the geometry of ways.
Alright question time: how do I find out the info on a GPX track? I can see it in the map view, and I can see it in JOSM. I just can't get any info about it, even though it's a public trace and is no doubt on the publice trace OSM website
