Creating OSM on the Fly

Coolness!But...GPS drift – walking, sampling every x seconds?To the JOSM young man!Costly. Fiddly.

Best for:Small changes, potlatch styleNodes, POI etc

*** At this present time ***

18

So in that case....

Where best to direct our energy?Field aid vs JOSM on your phone?Creation vs Editing.Is this street already mapped?Correct this street name / attributes.Waypoints, POI, nodes.

But the future is comingspace is mergingCould see a full osm editor on the mobile device soon.
