[OSM-dev] GSOC 2019 - Project Idea
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. Vishal R Email: vishal27...@outlook.com ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev

[OSM-dev] GSoC Doubts
Hi, First, thank you OSM for selecting my proposal for Google Summer of Code. I have some doubts and I was hoping the community could help me with them. I am bit active in OSM's IRC channels and mailing list. Are there any other communities I should be active in? Will I by using services like GitHub for my project, or does OSM have a repo service for projects like these? Thank you Vishal R ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
