I’m GovernorKeagan, a passionate OpenStreetMap contributor, tech enthusiast, and privacy advocate. My OSM journey initially began in 2019, likely spurred by my intrigue with StreetComplete—I vaguely recall having the app on an old phone but never submitted any edits. Fast forward to November 2023, for reasons I can’t quite pinpoint, whether it was something I saw or read, my interest in OSM was unexpectedly rekindled.
🌍 Contributions:
- A large chunk of my editing is done with JOSM on my PC. I do also use EveryDoor & OsmAnd while I’m away from a computer.
- You can view my mapping contributions here.
