Is there a recommended way to contribute to OpenStreetMaps? There's so much stuff in Vancouver that could use updates, but I'm not sure where to start (lemmy.ca)

It's a bit overwhelming. I see a lot of documentation, but it's a lot to read through for the average user.

Should I just download the surveyor app and start fixing things? Is there another community that's updating things?

A big issue I notice is that the building lines are all janky, which makes it annoying to use.

I was using Maps.me but i wouldn't export nor update OSM. Organic seems better, still leaning. following thread
