ABRP for Nerds

Since OSM seems to underlie ABRP and since OSM is an imperfect resource, it would be great if there was:

  • Documentation of the OSM tags used by ABRP as well as documentation of how to apply / correct them to get the best out of ABRP.

  • An, optional perhaps, interface in ABRP to flag errors/problems in the map, or even a way to get dropped into your OSM editing account at a location. One seemingly easy way to start on this would be to send users of ABRP a link when they report a bug so that they could easily go back to problem areas.

    Another “nerd feature” would be for ABRP to generate a stream of problems as you traverse a route. For example: around me there are a lot of road segments that lack maxspeed tags and this seems to be causing ABRP to display erroneous speed limits. If ABRP could log those in a format that I could access, then I could go and make the edits to OSM.
