Hi Alan,

In addition to how Clifford explains below, you can also double click on the coordinates in the lower left of the JOSM screen. The resulting dialog will have the same type of url with the zoom level in it in the bottom field.

You can also edit that url to change the zoom level and then click "Jump there" and you will zoom to that zoom level.

But wait there is more :)

You can copy/paste the standard OSM urls from and into that url field in JOSM to share and trade locations with others.

Cheers,
Blake

    How can I view the current "zoom level"​ in the JOSM editor or at
    the basic OSM website openstreetmap.org <http://openstreetmap.org>

    Zoom levels are defined as numbers (1-19) at
    http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Zoom_levels

    I read a lot of messages talking about viewing details at at
    specific zoom levels.


Alan,
The zoom level is displayed on OSM in the url. For example,
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/48.46099/-122.33798 the zoom level
is 17. Notice when you zoom in or out, the map= changes each time.

JOSM is a little more hidden, a right click on the background image
gives the option of "Show Tile Info" with the zoom level indicated in
the Tile Name.
