Description: Java Open Street Map editor
JOSM is an editor for OpenStreetMap written in Java 1.5. It makes you
able to download OSM data from the on-line database, edit them and then
upload the modifications to the database.
OpenStreetMap is a Wiki-like project aimed squarely at creating and
providing free geographic data such as street maps to anyone who wants
them. Data are obtained mainly by walking or driving while a GPS unit
is recording your path, then are edited in order to include also
information such as street names and classification, points of
interest, etc. and finally uploaded to the database.
You can see the work done so far at http://www.openstreetmap.org.
