Yes it would. This is my next big item on my TODO list, there is also an issue for it on GitHub. > method to maintain the data quality in OSM to make it less likely that > data becomes out-of-date I would say so. What is needed to enable quests like "Is this X still there?", "Is this railway stop still not wheelchair accessible?, "Are these opening hours still correct?" etc. are three things: 1. possibility to query elements - or rather single tags of elements - by last change date via Overpass. The former is already possible, I read 2. possibility to record that an element - or rather a single tag of an element - has been surveyed at a date and no change was required 3. just a little research about the usual lifetime of different map features / tags, so that users are not bothered about rechecking things too often On 13.7.2017 1:46 PM, Svavar Kjarrval wrote: > 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?
