Hi Thomas,
Thanks also for your work on this - I am interested in its potential use
for future disaster activations where HOT has an influx of new mapping
volunteers. Would be useful to improve data quality and also make for an
even more pleasant mapping experience for those new to mapping using
Hi,
Finally the first prototype of the OSM Task Management is finished.
This should provide the backend to manage the database which provides
the data for an automatic configurable editor.
For me it is important that some volunteers, especially but not
necessary from HOT officials ;), have a
Hi Thomas,
I'd love to checkout what you've whipped up.
Broadly, I'm interested in tools that allow for customizable and easily
deployable HOT/OSM editing environments (ran a project beta test with
OSMLoggingRoads http://loggingroads.org this spring)--a TM management GUI
could be a really

Wow, that is really cool. Interesting to see the idea moving into an
actual useable (at least for demonstration purposes anyway) piece of
software. I think this is definitely something that could be useful
for certain tasks, so it is good to see the
Hi,
Just to show how it could look like. I took the time and made a quick
and dirty proof of concept to show.

I volunteer to test the usability of a restricted iD interface, and to add my
two cents to what would have worked for me when I started mapping.
A New to mapping? Click here! button on the front page of the OSM site taking
new mappers to How to get started page would be an excellent addition,
Hi Thomas et al,
I've been really interested in the idea of customized editing environments,
which was one of the major ideas behind the OSMLoggingRoads project.
As althio pointed out, iD does expose custom presets and custom imagery in
a really clean, easy way. It's pretty well documented
Hi althio, Hi Suzan,
Since I was on holidays for the last 2 weeks my considerations where
mostly theoretical.
I ruled out JOSM because users have to download and configure settings.
So I settled for webbased editors.
From the current established editors that would be potlatch and ID.
I wanted
Hi Stefan,
I like the idea too and would like also point to JOSM which can be
configured with specific presets, like the one mentioned currently
here [1].
The basic idea not to use JOSM is that as much work as possible should
be taken from the new users. Like TomNod. Is easy simple and
Hi Thomas
I like the idea too and would like also point to JOSM which can be
configured with specific presets, like the one mentioned currently

iD would be even easier to use, but I think its preset can't be
changed like in JOSM (right, Tom?).
But before releasing such an editor and
I dont know if ID can load configurations per task out of a database
since I dont have any experience with ID.

My favorite solution will be a new URL parameter to add Individual
Presets file.

Hi Thomas,
I think *most* of your requirements would be met with a specific
instance of iD editor with customised presets (a very reduced set).
The avantages of such an editor would be:
a) No bothering with tags, comments, etc.
b) Reduction of the chance of duplicates. Because no elements
Hi all,
I am following the Hot Mailinglist for a while as passive reader and
since Nepal more active.
These last weeks I was thinking a lot how to help new mappers while
achieving more standardisation and compareable output.
In my opinion HOT needs a highly customizable and automatic
Josm is powerful editor, but hudreds tagging presets may be confusing. Take
a look at josm presets [1]. I set up three, related to three Nepal tasks.
You can easily customize as needed. A short josm menu tree speeds up
digitizing.
