Select a task from MapRoulette and open it in JOSM. It is recommended to always open the task in a new JOSM layer, so that the risk of an edit conflict to appear is minimized.
In JOSM, activate the OpenStreetCam plugin. Make sure to activate high quality images by right-clicking on the plugin, Preferences > Display high quality images when selecting image location.
Verify the location of the traffic lights using satellite imagery or OSC/Mapillary images.
Once you've successfully added the traffic light, hit the upload button in JOSM to commit the edit. Note that MapRoulette will automatically add the source from where the information was taken.
Finally, select a task status in MapRoulette so that other people can see that the task has been reviewed, and will not appear anymore.
This challenge focuses on adding missing traffic lights in Perth, AUS, using MainRoads open data.
