I modified an open source GPX recording app called Trackbook to turn it into a 24/7 recorder, and I wrote about it here: https://voussoir.net/writing/obsessed_with_gpx I have a few recent commits in my repository that I haven't put into a versioned APK yet though. The output GPX files can be viewed on the PC with JOSM: https://josm.openstreetmap.de/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
JOSM has quite convenient merge/split functions, making deletion and re-tracing unnecessary. I took care of the issue in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/134052747. Source: about 1 year ago
Record your track and upload it onto Open Street Map. That's the map service that Strava and Garmin utilize. You'll be able to add the trail for everyone to see regardless of the program as long as it uses OSM. JOSM is a really good program to edit OSM and here's a video to get you started on how to use it.

Great for preparing data for OSM, but JOSM is the only desktop editor for actually making contributions. Source: about 1 year ago
One that comes to my mind would be JOSM: https://josm.openstreetmap.de/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
If you want to do more advanced editing, I would suggest JOSM. It is very powerfull and there is a huge list of plugins. You can do almost anything, but it runs on desktop devices. Source: over 1 year ago
You could also do all of this in OpenStreetMap or one of its open source editors like JOSM, then run a filter for tags of those features (probably something like “playfield” or “baseball”) in Overpass Turbo. One cool thing about this option is all your work would be visible and usable by the general public forever. Source: over 1 year ago
If you want to look at the structure of OSM, JOSM is a good desktop application and Vespucci for Android is the least awful option there. The wiki can tell you what the tags mean; here's more info on the route tag. You can find more info about the Overpass API that lets you run weird queries against the map here.

I'm having a very similar but slightly different where exe files getting the file extension .sig added to the end of exe files on certain websites. It happens on this website: https://josm.openstreetmap.de/ try clicking the download for the windows installer. Source: almost 2 years ago
(also, when you get more experienced, the app JOSM is the one to use (much faster to do editing)). Source: almost 2 years ago
JOSM: Editing for power users on desktop. Source: almost 2 years ago
There’s two questions here; an answer for the second: I assume you’re running Windows, did you download the “Windows installer” from https://josm.openstreetmap.de/ and double click on it? That should talke care of installing JOSM for you, as it comes bundled with everything it needs to run. Source: over 2 years ago
It has a bit of a learning curve, but then you're not depending on your OS, since it looks and behaves identically on a Mac, Linux and on Windows :) [1]: http://josm.openstreetmap.de/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago
If you want to wrestle with these multipolygons, you are going to have to learn JOSM. Https://josm.openstreetmap.de/. Source: almost 3 years ago
I personally use JOSM for editing, but this can be even more overwhelming at first. I guess the simplest way to contribute on your Mac is to go to openstreetmap.org and press the 'Edit' button on the top left. This puts you into ID, the 'standard' editor in your browser. Source: almost 3 years ago
The best, as in most effecient way to contribute to OpenStreetMap on the PC is and probably will always be JOSM. Source: almost 3 years ago
I often use the FastDraw plugin in JOSM to easily draw roads (and avoid RSI) in rural areas. Source: about 3 years ago
You may want to download JOSM -- the Java OpenStreetMap Editor. " It supports loading GPX tracks, background imagery, and OSM data from local sources as well as from online sources and allows to edit the OSM data (nodes, ways, and relations) and their metadata tags.". Source: about 3 years ago
