Allow creating OpenStreetMap notes
Idea
Creating/Managing OSM notes from the app can have several benefits.
Use cases:
- Questions may not be answerable because the underlying OSM data is incorrect. Creating a note in such cases might be useful.
- Write "ToDos" to yourself or others that become apparent while being on sight
- Answer notes from others
Bug Relation
No response
Implementation
The osm_api already provides all necessary API calls.
- We could have an additional FAB button to create notes.
- We could have a toggle to switch between modes showing either questions or notes on the map.
- We could display notes similar to questions as markers.
- Questions or markers could have an option to write a note to this element. (note would be created at the same spot and may include some reference, like a name or id)
Additional Info
Writing a note doesn't require an OSM account. So this would be a way for people to contribute without having an OSM account (even though it would be a pretty small contribution).
