I don't see an option to enter that info on StreetComplete or EveryDoor, and it would be hard to open your laptop every time

This was specific to a university campus, to try and map out the amenities available to the public / to students

Vespucci is a step up in complexity to StreetComplete, but lets you perform node additions. That's wat I use when out and about alongside StreetComplete.

Same here. The learning curve is higher on Vespucci, but once you're familiar with it it's extremely capable!

For toilets and showers: https://mapcomplete.org/toilets For drinking water: https://mapcomplete.org/drinking_water (edit: I erroneously pasted the toilet-link here before as well)

@pietervdvn @cynber

Please do not drink water from the toilets!

@dnkrupinski @[email protected] @cynber hehe, wrong link. Should be mapcomplete.org/drinking_water

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

@pietervdvn @cynber Both of these links seem to be the same. Was that intentional?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

No, I copy-pasted the same link twice accidentally. Edited and corrected now.

I just put this into my search bar "!wosm shower" it directly searches the osm wiki for for shower. With the help of the bang "!" https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dshower

!wosm water fountain yields https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?search=water%20fountain

You can add it easily in osmand

That search shortcut works only if you have DuckDuckGo as your search engine, though.

Qwant, Brave and others work as well

That doesn't work in qwant for me Screenshot from a qwant search
