the goal of this bachelor thesis project for one or two people or master thesis project for one person is to design, plan, implement and test an application using open streetmap to add free annotations to an OSM-based map via mobile phone. the app should work both on iOS and android, and it should enable closed groups of people to share a layer of annotations on this map. the sharing should be as light-weight as possible, eg. no registration & authentication, just exchange of a random code for use within a group. the annotation process should be free-form, mostly symbolic or freehand, and as simple as possible, with proper handling of eg. multiple annotations being added to the same area.
this project contributes to a current research project about youth mobility & public transport, and will ideally be evaluated in the context of this research project.
