Hi,
I am interested in participating in GSOC this year and working on a project
for OSM. I got the inspiration for my idea from this
issue(https://github.com/Stalfur/Askja/issues/23) on Askja by
Stalfur(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Stalfur).
I have been using JOSM to add data abt my university. My university has
buildings with some complex shapes and It is tough to add nodes around it that
captures the right shape. I propose a small tool in JOSM. Using this tool, you
can draw a bounding box around the building you want to map. This data is sent
to a cloud server with does some processing on the image enclosed in that
bounding box to get the nodes that can enclose that building. The data about
the nodes is sent back to the client and is displayed on the client's screen.
This can also be used for quality assurance bu running this in a changeset.
I'd like your thoughts on this idea.
