A feature I suggested for routing apps was a mode that you could use if
you had to get from A to B but not in a hurry. It would treat places
that had errors as less costly in terms of routing, so that routes would
be biased towards them. It's usually quite easy for a routing algorithm
detect no name streets and FIXMEs and cost them lower.

Then have the UI signal you when you reach an error and let you leave a
voice note for yourself to be able to correct the error later.

It should also let you leave voice notes, and start recording a track,
when your GPS lock is good (low HDOP) but you are not close enough to a
way that it knows about.

 Enter a set of co-ordinates and it will produce a GPX file containing
 waypoints of all the issues it finds.

 At the time of writing, it flags up:
 Motorways, trunk, primary and secondary roads without a ref tag
 Various things without names
 Shops etc without opening hours
 Anything with source set to extrapolation, NPE or historical
 Anything with a FIXME tag
 Any node with naptan:verified=no
 Any way with highway=road

   
Could you put this list on the web page?

Why are the source errors not acceptable to you? I believe NPE  
extrapolation are valid.

I've never like historical as a tag or key. It's an adjective  is 
therefore subjective.

Good idea. Done.

I've never used historical, but it's listed on Map Features, where 
source=historical is from out-of-copyright mapping or other historical 
document

I've included that and NPE/extrapolation source tags because they 
indicate features that might benefit from an on the ground survey.

This is great.  Is there a generic page that will take a GPX file (or the URI
of one) and show the points overlayed on a slippy map?
