JOSM/Plugins/OpenStreetBugs
OpenStreetBugs was a database and a website for marking errors in the OpenStreetMap data. It is now deprecated as its functionality has been replaced by Notes, a core feature of openstreetmap.
This plugin integrated OpenStreetBugs into JOSM.
You could view bugs, add comments, close bugs and report new bugs.
Bugs
Please use the JOSM bug tracker to report bugs or ask for new features. Simply create a new ticket and describe your problem as detailed as possible.
Installation
Use the plugin manager to install the plugin.
Alternatively, you can download it directly from [1] and put it into your plugin directory
Usage
Load OpenStreetBugs issues into JOSM
The plugin automatically downloads OpenStreetBugs issues as soon as the plugin dialog is opened. If you drag or zoom the map, the plugin will download the issues on the fly, so that you don't have to update the issues manually. If you don't like this behavior, you can disable the auto download feature in the settings of JOSM. Open the settings dialog, select the Einstein tab, find the entry osb.auto_download and set it to false.
Select an issue
There are two ways to select an OpenStreetBugs issue. You can select an issue in the list of the OpenStreetBugs dialog or you can click on an issue in the map. If you want to click on an issue in the map, the OpenStreetBugs layer has to be selected.
Change an issue
To edit an issue, select the desired one, as described before and then either use one of the buttons in the OpenStreetBugs dialog or use the right mouse button on an issue in the map or in the list in the plugin dialog to open a context menu.
Report a new issue
First press the green "+" button, then select the osm object which has an issue. A comment window will open to allow you to add details.
Configuration
You can find some configuration parameters on the Einstein tab in the settings dialog.
