Have you heard of StreetComplete? It's an Android app that shows you open questions/issues with OpenStreetMap in your area, and asks you to answer them.
It's made for people with no experience with #OpenStreetMap, so it shows only very simple questions that can be answered very clearly. ("What is printed on this street sign?", "What's the number on this house?")
It's available on @fdroidorg, of course! #mapping #android #apps #recommendation
@rixx @fdroidorg It's pretty great, I've been using it for a couple of months now to improve OSM every time I walk around town 👌
@rixx It's actually really fun, it's like Mapdefect GO.
@rixx @fdroidorg I'm considering installing it and taking it for a spin. Mostly I've been doing map editing for HOT.
@rixx @fdroidorg I hadn't heard of StreetComplete. Pretty cool. I've answered a question about the road surface. Going to answer a speed limit question next. Thanks for this.
@rixx Thanks for the recommendation! I just installed it... and OsmAnd at the same time, adios Google Maps :)
Do you know where I can find a list of all the questions that can be answered? In my area, I only see house number and street name.
@rixx
I've used it. It is good.
@fdroidorg
@rixx Now if only there were a way to anonymously upload the data so that following my OSM account isn't both a good reference for where I frequent and also a live way to tell when and where I'm traveling.
@rixx (To be clear, I use it anyway, but some better privacy would be nice.)
@rixx
Hab ich gleich mal ausprobiert. Das ist ja cool!
@fdroidorg
@rixx @fdroidorg I think it's pretty neat. Used it a few times and found it very pleasant to work with. Especially when used on the go.
@rixx For those using iOS, it looks like #kort is a similar app: http://www.kort.ch/
Supports both iOS and Android.
@rixx @fdroidorg This is quite cool! I wonder how well this approach could work for gathering other types of data. 😏
@rixx @saper @fdroidorg
aaaaand, now I have a new hobby.
I mean, I rely on OSMand to navigate, so, only fair.
@rixx @saper @fdroidorg
TIL that OSM has no idea what any road in the UK is made of…
@rixx @fdroidorg nice, will try that because contributing to such an awesome thing like #Openstreetmap is...well awesome 
#FOSS
@rixx fucking love OSM, mastodon mappers unite!
@rixx I just wish there was a way I could get credit for my JOSM edits lol. Like, fuck, every street around me is asphalt, this is getting tedious
@rixx @fdroidorg hm, no single quest around me. Seems it does not work
@rixx @fdroidorg wow, great! Thank you for the hint. I've been using Vespucci so far to edit #OpenStreetMap, which also is a great OSM editor and works very, very well. But being pointed by StreetComplete to specific issues helps to contribute in a very targeted manner. #mapping #android #apps #recommendation
@rixx @fdroidorg I use it since some months... it's fun..
