Noobs

Simply fill out the form and we will add the location into OpenStreetMaps for you!

Field: Merchant Name
Field: Address
Field: Google Maps URL
Radio: onchain | lightning | ightning contactless/nfc
Field: Notes | Please enter as much detail as possible.

You'll be editing like a Super Shadowy Coder in no time.

Shadowy Super Coders

Once you have an OpenStreetMap account, you can use the OSM iD web app to edit the maps directly on OpenStreetMap.org.

Please use the following guidance when editing locations:

Required tags

currency:XBT=yes - This denotes the Bitcoin currency is generally accepted.

Optional tags

payment:onchain=yes - This denotes that onchain payments are accepted.

payment:lightning=yes - This denotes that Lightning payments are accepted.

payment:lightning_contactless=yes - This denotes that NFC Lightning payments are accepted.

survey:date=yyyy-mm-dd - This helps mappers know how current the data is. You should verify all data if using this.

Legacy tags

payment:bitcoin=yes - This is a very popular legacy tag implying both currency:XBT=yes and payment:onchain=yes.

currency:BTC=yes - This is a less popular tag, although has some use.

We still search for these tags for general display in the apps, but we won't be specific on the payment types supported. You should consider removing them and updating with the current tagging rules.

Points, not Ways

Please tag points not ways. If ways already exist, consider adding a point.

What fields do we need on the form? Or do you want to host the form some other place and just point a link to it? Then I guess our design will be focused on shadowy super coders with a simple button for the noobs.

Issue updated with field details.

@secondl1ght has ideas about where the data is posted. We could post it into a channel in the community discord as it will need verifying and we can get the community to edit. Whatever is easiest for now.

I'm thinking two tabs on the modal: Noobs | Super Shadowy Coders but happy with whatever you think looks best.

@dadofsambonzuki the fields you put in the Figma are different than what you posted above:

Merchant Name City, Country Google Map link Support for onchain and/or lightning and/or lightning nfc

We can create a Submissions channel on Discord where I can integrate with the Airtable backend I plan on using and it will post notifications there. Once somebody verifies and adds the submission to OSM we can check it off as complete in Airtable. Ill ask Igor today what he thinks about this.

[dadofsambonzuki]

Updated the ticket.

If you have a google maps URL is the address field necessary?

[cogentgene]

onchain | lightning | ightning contactless/nfc

Should these be checkboxes?

[secondl1ght]

onchain | lightning | ightning contactless/nfc

Should these be checkboxes?

Yes

@dadofsambonzuki let's also make sure we are only collecting the necessary data that we need to add the location to OSM (what are the notes for?). We want it to be as quick and easy as possible for users, I haven't added a location to OSM yet so don't know all the required and optional fields but we should essentially mirror the inputs that OSM needs I think.

[secondl1ght]

Also can we not explicitly say Google for the reference URL? Could use DDG, bing, any mapping website really.

[dadofsambonzuki]

Agree with your comments @secondl1ght and I'm happy for you to define this. It should be as simple as possible.

There is so much detail we can add in from OSM, but that would complicate things hugely.

The aim is to have the minimal amount of info that will enable the tagging community to verify and add further details.

We should probably (optionally) grab a twitter handle so we can follow-up if needed.
