Reimagining the OSM User Profile

@Pieter Vander Vennet I also believe that gamification can have its downsides, that’s why I didn’t cover it that much, but I think that if it was implemented it would have to have a good discussion in the community. About privacy the user could choose if his profile is public or not (only followers) and also approve who follows him. I think OpenStreetMap lacks a vision of UX to value its mappers and attract new mappers, of course Big G has more power to do this, but I think that as a decentralized community we could through events value our mappers.

@JannikK Me too

Reimagining the OSM User Profile

@MatthiasMatthias Thanks!

Reimagining the OSM User Profile

@Christian Lederman I think they could make bagdes available for those who participated in the challenges

Reimagining the OSM User Profile

thanks @jellythecube Yes it would help a lot in retention, few new users know Missing Maps, I think bringing it into the OSM profile would make it more accessible

thanks @Chistian Ledermann

Lançamento: [Idioma] Localização como facilitador de inclusão e de participação

Olá, um dos pontos que poderiam facilitar seria os Diários terem suporte para tradução automática dos navegadores web, isso é uma ferramenta de acessibilidade importante para todos que não falam ingles

Uma nova forma de usar o OSM

olá ldquod, Concordo, o OSM nunca quis ser o produto final sempre deixou para outros, o google maps está perdendo a qualidade dos dados a medida q tenta ser mais uma rede social, não tenho dados mas sempre encontro uma selfie nos reviews dos locais ou locais com a localização incorreta…

Why OpenStreetMap is not popular?

Thanks for the comment Aury88, I agree with you, I think it might be necessary to have a tiler server or a separate frontend for end users, about vandalism I think solutions like Facebook’s Daylight Map has done a great job in giving stability to the data but the lack of a unique identifier for POIs affects the data a lot plus it would be hard to build an evaluation system without it

Why OpenStreetMap is not popular?

Thanks for the comment DeBigC, If you can take a look at my old texts you will see that in the last year I have been trying to build a base with mapped buildings, in Brazil there are not many incentives for recruitment and considering the financial situation of much of the country we have even fewer people to collaborate voluntarily. What I advocate is that we find an effort in mapping along with palliative solutions by the Apps for OSM.

Why OpenStreetMap is not popular?

@SimonPoole, hi… What I say in the text is that the OpenAdresses data could be merged by the OSM app into a geocoder. About the comparison with Google I don’t think it is different, I think that for OSM to grow it has to be more than a back-end tool. If we want OSM to grow we will have to leave this passive position and start investing in the end user as well…

Why OpenStreetMap is not popular?

Hi Lyx, thanks for the comment,

Yes, I agree and have been making an effort to do so, always adding POIs and buildigns footprint, so that it can be added the addresses using street complete.

For clients, would it be so complicated to merge the data from OpenAdresses in their geo encoders … even if it is a stopgap measure I think it would impact a lot on the user experience, ultimately who knows even acquire this database with the government that is for sale.

I believe it would be a minimal investment for a client and can also bring great returns as the sale of geocoding services to third parties.

about 2020 and what I expect for 2021

@pedrito1414 Hi, I don’t think you are late, always good to be able to share knowledge…. Unfortunately I had difficulties in contacting the governments, as I am not able to go personally to each city and there are no organizations that use the OSM around here the data ends up staying in the OSM bubble. I am thinking about how I can break through this bubble and take OSM to more people in the mapped cities, if you have any suggestions I would be grateful!

Thanks, I didn’t know who had made the chart, it has helped me a lot and served as motivation sometimes.

Understanding the Humanitarian Open Mapping Movement

I was really excited about this initiative that is the best way to develop a healthy community … A step that would be good would be to create more content in the native languages, there are very few HOT content for example in Portuguese. I have been working to map my region following HOT principles I am still trying to organize to create a “hub” I would love your help we currently have our own task manager: https://tarefas.mapeia.space/

Sorry i use google translate
