Purpose
The fixme key allows contributors to mark objects and places that need further attention. These can be in the form of a "note to self" or request for additional mapping resources.
Example
A way with
- k="highway" v="residential" together with
- k="fixme" v="this section of highway ABCD added from memory, add a gpx trace and adjust"
or just
- k="fixme" v="resurvey"
A node or way in an interchange with
- k="fixme", v="This interchange is complete with the exception of the SB to WB ramp to Highway ABCD. Would an OSM commuter who takes that ramp trace it please?"
An otherwise untagged way surrounding some part of a town with
- k="fixme", v="resurvey names in this area, entered from memory"
Rendering
This shouldn't be rendered on the main map, but perhaps as a Maplint-like overlay, or integrated with OpenStreetBugs.
