Have you tried the '8' key in JOSM? It steps you back through previous "views" until you get back to the one you want.<br>
<br>
It is sort of like a multiple "undo" for view changes.<br>
<br>
It mostly helps me when I accidentally zoom my view when trying to do something else, but it might help your use case too.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

While it's not difficult to scan in JOSM via keyboard, once you leave<br>
that zig-zag<br>
for detailed viewing or editing, it's difficult to snap back to exactly<br>
where you left<br>
the trail. If there was a means for helping with it that would be awesome.<br>

Hi Noah,<br>
<br>
I think this is a good idea. I have often wanted a grid to overlay<br>
on my task square to help me in scanning for things to map while<br>
zoomed in so I get the hi-res imagery.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

This is a duplicate but it looks like my image did not load<br>
properly on<br>
the last email. I attached it to this email.<br>

Hi Everyone,<br>
<br>
I work at the Spatial Analysis Lab at the University of Vermont. We<br>
digitize as the bulk of our workload here and I had a suggestion<br>
that I<br>
think could increase the efficiency of edits. If there was a<br>
grid over<br>
each tile that could guide the user through editing, it would<br>
stop them<br>
from overlapping areas and increase accuracy of scanning. We do that<br>
here and it significantly improves performance.<br>
<br>
Attached is an example from one of our projects. I start at the<br>
yellow<br>
circle in the upper left and scan across and down, across and<br>
down etc.<br>
then end at the blue circle. There are multiple routes that<br>
could guide<br>
you through the tile; some people prefer going down each column<br>
instead<br>
of across the rows.<br>
<br>
This does not actually split the tile into multiple tasks, it<br>
just helps<br>
the user better organize their scanning route when looking<br>
through the<br>
imagery. I think this would be a nice function to be added to the ID<br>
editor that could be toggled on and off (maybe some people won't<br>
like it<br>
or a line could obstruct a feature).<br>
<br>
Also, I am hosting another Mapathon in Burlington, VT on Sunday,<br>
November 9th 10am-4pm. Here is the event page if anyone is<br>
interested:<br></div></div>
