Could it be synced back to OSM so that people can submit in your nicer interface but it'll flow back into OSM? I'm honestly not super familiar how open OSM is for things like that.
- defanor 5y agoHaven't tried it myself, but there are automated imports going on here and there, and a few wiki pages (including a code of conduct) on the topic too: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_edits https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_edits
- stereo 5y agoThe pianos.pub could be an osm editor that just edits pianos, based on https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/MapComplete https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/MapComplete
- ancarda 5y agoThere's lots of prior art, such as https://wheelmap.org/ https://wheelmap.org/ -- so I imagine OSM is somewhat open to this sort of thing. Might be worth looking at how Wheelmap edits OSM. I believe it's from a generic account and edits are tagged such to make it clear it's from a member of the public. You could also implement OAuth (sign-in with OSM) to do edits, similar to how some tools like https://maproulette.org/ https://maproulette.org/ work, though you'll get less contributions if you don't have an option for anonymous public edits.
