Today I found out that it’s actually a lot easier to contribute to Open Street Map than I thought. There are some serious gaps in house addresses in my area and I was painstakingly using the built in browser editor in the browser.

It’s really fun - kind of like Pokémon Go but you are actually making an impact 😁
