Thanks for the app. Will test it out soon on the ground. Would it be possible in a future version to allow the user to filter out certain types of quests? The one most prominent in my neighbourhood is the type of road surface and due to the amount of roads I'd rather take care of it on a desktop computer. Other possible scenarios is that the user might want to ignore that type for other reasons or to get a break from it. Such an UI option could also give the opportunity for opt-in quests, which are generally not interesting to the general user but would allow the OSM nerds to collect more unusual information.
One of the ideas I put forth on (I think) this mailing list was that we needed a method to maintain the data quality in OSM to make it less likely that data becomes out-of-date, for example opening times. I don't know if it would fit within the scope of the StreetComplete project, but it's worth a thought. - Svavar Kjarrval On mið 12.júl 2017 17:01, Tobias Zwick wrote: > I am proud to announce that after a long public betatest, the first > stable version of the app has been released on Google Play and F-Droid. > StreetComplete is a FOSS Android app that aims to enable easy on-survey > contribution to OSM for anyone. > > Specifically, it enables users to extend already mapped data through a > simple question-answer format: The app ask questions about things on the > map such as "What is the name of this road?" or "How many levels does > this building have?" and the user is given a simple form to fill in this > information. > > The processed answers are then directly uploaded as changes to the > OpenStreetMap, eliminating the need to (learn and) use another editor > for simple contributions. > > In this first version, the following quests are implemented.
