[Talk-us] Best iOS app for GPS wander, GPX to laptop into OSM?

[stevea]

You know what I mean.  This would be a Mapping Party method.  Why 
loan out GPS hardware?

OK, Android, too.  Best GPS-phone-enabled app to absorb a decent 
Mapping Party wander and upload to a laptop.  (Something like 
GPSBabel, but streamlined for GPS-phone-to-laptop, could be a USB 
cable, could be Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, there are lots of possibilities). 
Upload to OSM directly (also) from the phone app is OK, too.  The 
idea here is to do an iD walkthrough (on a laptop, at a Mapping 
Party) as a teaching moment.  Uploading a GPX track is one thing. 
Editing the map with iD and good tags and smart data entry is much 
more.  We have the time and patience to share what we know with 
others (we also have newer tools, like smartphones running newer OS 
versions).  We want these new OSM volunteers to soar and fly.  So 
let's conversation-streamline some smartphone-to-OSM_Editor 
solutions.  Anybody?

I figure I'll just start talking about this here.  You never know who 
is reading and might think "good idea, I might listen in on that 
thread."  Or even throw in two cents.
