2 sremarks:
- even if it won't be a problem for some people, asking people
to contribute to G-profiling will drive some people away.
privacy-friendly alternative https://framaforms.org/abc/en/
- question 6 probably requires a "I don't use the tool
in this context" answer
I think this is even the main "issue":
* Either we collect a trace of a missing way, the number of missing way
is often low in a given area and I have never seen a cartoparty on this
subject (even if it must obviously exist in areas less rich in osm data).
It is however in this context that I systematically need to download the
track since I make a way in osm, align it with the other objects, remove
the points too bad or too numerous. at the end, I don't need the trace
anymore (and when the tools allow it to send it by email, I don't see
the need to send a trace to osm any more as I have created a way with
a higher quality
* Either we collect POIs and from my experience, reprocessing them later
is not very efficient. it's more efficient to use a real editor and send
the whole thing to osm as data (not as a trace). but this is the kind of
data that a cartoparty organizer should review to check the quality of
what has been done.
I also remember a discussion with an ngo: again, collecting osm data
before sending would have been useful (due to limited and expensive
non-wifi internet access). but again they work with data and not traces
