CoMaps
@CoMaps@floss.social  ·  activity timestamp 4 days ago

Did you know you can now add an address to OpenStreetMap directly from the CoMaps editor?

Contributing info is easier than ever:
Every address improves navigation and discovery for millions of people worldwide.

Get started today:
1) Tap ‘Add Place to OpenStreetMap’ and select point of address
2) Select the ‘Address’ Category
3) Enter the address and tap 'Save'

Your small edit can make a big difference!

@CoMaps Do y’all know if some better single address discovery might be coming to CoMaps soon? When I’m in Cincinnati and search my Columbus home address, I don’t get any relevant results despite putting in the street in full. The street number also appears AFTER the street name, which (at least in the US) is not the standard format. If this would be improved, it’d be much easier for me to use CoMaps as my daily navigation solution!

@CoMaps Does it allow adding tags? One thing I find limiting with your antecedent OrganicMaps is that I can add something like bike parking, but not the tags for the type or capacity.

@CoMaps I used the “Edit Place” feature for the first time last night and it really is super easy! Great work.
