Based on the original\nKeypadMapper by Nic Roets, the latest version allows mappers to easily record\nthe GPS coordinates of house numbers to contribute to OSM. This version has an\nenhanced User Interface (UI) with new, improved features.\n\nThe app records house numbers while making text, audio, and photo memos to\nhelp with the mapping process later in JOSM. It also has a \u201cfreeze GPS\u201d feature\nthat allows users to save the actual GPS coordinates of the address node while\nsearching to see the house number. The last three house numbers are clearly\ndisplayed in the history and typing while in landscape mode opens up a full\nkeyboard. Address details and GPS accuracy can be viewed in its other windows,\noffering all the features necessary for successful house number recording.\n\nOther features that improved its UI are the configurable settings. You can\nchoose between 9 languages and metric or imperial systems. The heading\ncalculation can be switched from compass to GPS and various other options help\nyou save battery life and data space. Users are saying it \u201cdoes exactly what I\nneed\u201d and \u201cmakes it simple to contribute.\u201d\n\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/KM3_Overview_EN1.jpg\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1186\" src=\"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/KM3_Overview_EN1-300x179.jpg\" alt=\"Keypad-Mapper-3_Overview_EN\" width=\"300\" height=\"179\" \/><\/a>\n\nKeypad-Mapper 3 was developed in hopes to help grow the map data for OSM.\nAlways looking for ways to improve the OSM mapping experience, Markus welcomes\nany feedback regarding the Keypad-Mapper 3 app which you can download for free\nat <a title=\"Download at Google Play\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=de.enaikoon.android.keypadmapper3&amp;feature=search_result&amp;hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Google Play<\/a>.\n\nVisit the <a href=\"http:\/\/wiki.openstreetmap.org\/wiki\/User:Markus59\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">wiki page<\/a> of Markus Semm for further information or contact Markus\nat msemm@enaikoon.de","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2649"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2649"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2649\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17243,"href":"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2649\/revisions\/17243"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2649"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2649"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.enaikoon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2649"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
