[OSM-talk] Continuous audio in JOSM on tracks without waypoints

To augment continuous audio synchronized with waypoints that I mailed about earlier this week, I have now also added the facility to work with continuous audio recordings on tracks where you don't have or don't want to use explicit GPS waypoints. This will be in tomorrow's JOSM build. After loa

[OSM-talk] Announcing a controllable Audio player and synchronisation with continuous sound tracks in JOSM

Today's JOSM build (549) contains some much improved audio handling. In particular, you can now use your dictaphone to record one long continuous audio file while you're surveying, collect waypoints on your GPS, and then in JOSM synchronise the audio with the waypoints and play each from waypoi

You could do it as a relation. The river bank would be a set of ways (each of which shares its end nodes with the ends of one of the others), and you could have a role for the one or two ways which close the loop which says "this is structural, not really part of the river bank". The renderer w
