JOSM Grid Creation Automation

A Python automation script that streamlines the creation of OSM grids within JOSM (Java OpenStreetMap Editor). Automates repetitive grid-generation tasks to speed up mapping workflows for large indoor or outdoor survey areas.

Challenge

Manually creating OSM grid structures in JOSM for large mapping areas is repetitive and time-consuming, prone to inconsistencies across grid cells.

Approach

Built a Python script that automates the grid creation process, generating consistent OSM-compatible grid geometries that can be loaded directly into JOSM.

Outcome

Reduced the time required to set up mapping grids for large survey areas, enabling more consistent and efficient field mapping workflows.
