Help to improve the OpenStreetMap with StreetComplete!
This app finds incomplete and extendable data in your vicinity and displays it on a map as markers. Each of those is solvable by answering a simple question to complete the info on site.
The info you enter is then directly added to the OpenStreetMap in your name, without the need to use another editor.
The slightly more hardcore version of r/place.
Hijacking the thread:
You are all welcome on !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml to discuss anyting OpenStreetMap-related
Also have a look to https://mapcomplete.osm.be - this one works on mobile and desktop and has many thematic maps (e.g. one for shops, one for cycling stuff, one for toilets) and you can improve the data there as well + add images.
An alternative for iOS is “Go Map!!”.
Thank you!
Also like that the iOS app privacy section says:
Data Not Collected The developer does not collect any data from this app
You don’t see that every day!
Nice one!
Does this have the same “tell us more about this place please” functionality or does it just let you make edits?
It asks you about the road type, house numbers etc.
SCEE is described as StreetComplete for advanced users. Does anyone have experience with this?
It’s exactly as it says. SCEE comes without handholding which means should know what you do.
It’s better to follow a guide on mapping and osm in general and after that you can use it without holding back.
I use both versions actively, the main differences of SCEE compared to StreetComplete are the addtion of more obscure questions (for example building and roof colors, species/genus of trees), allowing direct editing of tags and disabling the gamification/statistics.
