Hi Zhijie, Thank you for your interest in applying! Our ideas page is just that - ideas, so please add yours too. When you come to apply it would be good for you to point out what your proposal will do differently to existing tools, and explain if you propose to build on an existing tool or start from scratch.
We also appreciate early applications so that we can discuss them and you can update your proposal if necessary before the final deadline. Please ask if you need any help.

I checked the idea list of last year and found one: " Develop a Simple Mapping Tool for Mobile Phones Many mobile phones contain cameras, microphones and GPS receivers so it is possible to take geotagged pictures and audio clips and record GPX tracks. Some software exists that does this, but there is not a simple application that makes these tasks easy, 'one click' activities as they tend to be included as ad-ons to more complex applications. " Can it be re-proposed in this year? This idea is a bit similar to part of my current research work, i.e., mapping videos on the map. I think it would be a nice application that when we upload a video to youtube or a photo to flickr from the mobile phones, we also upload the GPS tracks and the permanent link of the photo/video to OSM. Afterwards, OSM can add a phone/video layer to show the multimedia. How do you think about this?
