Tip, talk to your local authorities and see if they can provide all of the data which you can then import to OSM.

Something keeps bugging me: I'm guessing nothing stops Google to integrate this data into its Maps application, right?

I don't want to discourage anyone from helping OSM using StreetComplete or other apps, but you should be aware that this is an open source project and your edits are public. If you walk around in your neighborhood and contribute opening times or whatever, those edits can be seen on a map along with your username and can in many cases be used to narrow down the neighborhood you live in, depending on your behavior. So if you're concerned about privacy, make sure you use a random generic username that you don't use anywhere else when signing up, so people googling your username from social media for example can't locate you just based on that name.

It has some weird license but Every Door is also a nice app to add data to the map, in case you want to try something different than Sreeet Complete in your mobile.

StreetComplete is really fun, and also can make a familiar surrounding area of your home worthy of re-exploring!

Wonderful apps! Had always thought about contributing but never found the energy or will to learn how. This makes it easy. Thanks

Just keep contributing bit by bit. It's a shame, I'm a busy CEO living in middle of nowhere with nothing to map, still #2 last week in my country, #12 for all times,seriously, if I had this thing as a student, I'd be doing nothing else, we were photographing cities with my friends back in the days for centralized maps and it's way more labor. Go install streetcomplete and just have fun, it's autistic paradize I live in now!

OpenStreetMap, singular, with the words capitalised and without spaces, thank you very much. We might be a tad neurotic about that.

Downloaded streetcomplete, looks fun and useful. Thanks for sharing!

I added the apps to https://better-tech.eu/search/article/maps/ to help spread the word.

StreetComplete Rank #136 in my country #1589 Globally

Across 7 countries (yep, even on holiday)

I've also added our home & some neighbours onto the map, which is great as our address is a little awkward and gradually our deliveries have improved as the map data reaches the driver's satnavs

Yes! It's a great Google Apps alternative. What's missing is public transport schedules.

There's a General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) which is an open data standard for transit passenger information. It was developed in the US, but maybe it could be used in the EU too if it doesn't have a European alternative? We could all email or @ the public transport companies of our areas and ask them to publish these. Or even @ the @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu here and on other social media.

Public money, public data, public code.

Edit: holy shit, GTFS was developed by Google! It might be how public transit systems world wide are publishing to Google! We should tell our public transit systems to make that data open to everybody, not just google!

There is also SCEE and Vespucci if you want more editing ability

Heads up for iOS users: sadly you can’t do streetcomplete, but you can do every door

Wow, thanks for the streetconplete tip! I'm going to make it my mission to rid my town of all unknown data points!

Thanks for sharing - will download and add to!

Is there an app that provides the data gathered by this app just like Google Maps (business hours, public transport, navigation, etc)? All I can find is separate apps for biking, navigation etc, but not all merged into one like Google Maps.

i don't have stuff to, yet
