want to edit!<br><br>I'd like to investigate getting this end result in JOSM, without the manual steps below<br>* Define the thematic layers in perferences (HEALTH is amenity=hospital, amenity=pharmacy, ROADS is highway=*, etc)<br>* Add a panel which toggles visibility on each of those thematic layers. By default, there would be a layer for everything else not caught by the defined themes<br>* ok, that's what I really want!<br><br>Not being a JOSM plugin expert ... does anyone have ideas on how to implement? Interested in collaborating on a plugin?<br><br>Thanks<br>Mikel<br><br></div>== Mikel Maron ==<br>+254(0)724899738 @mikel s:mikelmaron<br><span><a target="_blank" href="http://mapkibera.org/">http://mapkibera.org/</a></span><br><span><a target="_blank" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Haiti">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Haiti</a></span><div><br></div>
