Today I found out that it’s actually a lot easier to contribute to Open Street Map than I thought. There are some serious gaps in house addresses in my area and I was painstakingly using the built in browser editor in the browser.

But, you can use a FOSS app (available on fdroid) called StreetComplete that makes it a lot easier to help out filling in the gaps in your local map data.

It’s really fun - kind of like Pokémon Go but you are actually making an impact 😁

    I just started using it but I made a mistake on one of my submissions. Is there any way to undo or edit a submission made in the app?

    Edit: There is an undo button on the bottom left in the app.

      If push comes to shove, you can always create a note over the same place and mention “sorry I effed up here but don’t know how to revert :(”
