Hi Russel. There are many ways to contribute. I’ll show you some:

  • StreetComplete (Android) gamifies adding data to the map. The basics is about completing data, but you can enable layers to for instance add new shops. Beware: users report it can be addictive :)
  • OsmAnd (Android, iOS) is a general map app + navigation that also allows adding Points of Interests (POIs; not only shops, but almost anything else you can think of) to the map.
  • The iD editor (web) is the one you get when you go to osm.org ant the edit button. It’s probably the most used one. If you get used to this one, is one of the best ways to participate in HOT emergency mapathons like the current one for the Morocco earthquake.
  • The JOSM editor (Windows, Mac, Linux) it’s the heavyweight, full of plugins and very powerful.
  • If you like JOSM, you’ll probably like Vespucci (Android).

Welcome to the map!
