Consider documenting how it differs from StreetComplete #257
Comments
You missed: MapComplete allows the addition of new points. But for the rest, your difference is spot on. Part of the differences and differences in vision are outlined in one of StreetComplete's issues, but it wouldn't hurt to summarize it, for example here. I'm also planning on making a SOTM-video about MC, where one section will be a comparison with MapContrib and StreetComplete |
This would be my list: MC works in the browser on any device. SC is a mobile app. The primary use case of SC is: completing OSM feature attributes where you are. |
or maybe no, but I would thankful for confirming my summary or pointing out what is missing:
MapComplete is also an OpenStreetMap-viewer, while it is not focus of SC.
MapComplete is available as a website - so available on PC, iPhone etc
MapComplete will not work offline.
In MapComplete it is easier to add more experimental, extremely detailed and more personal styles, as each topic is separated with its own part.
MapComplete is a bit more complex to use - both because one needs to go hunting for a specific map style rather than getting bunch of quests by default and is likely to ask far more detailed question (email address and phone number of bicycle shop etc). After all if it would duplicate StreetComplete it would be a bit pointless and it is pretty hard to compete with SC by being easier to use and more newbie friendly, while there is space for "more complicated/detailed/involved editor working like SC".
Also, MapComplete has no requirement to make question easy to answer, making both possible to ask more questions than StreetComplete but making it more complicated to use.
No support for splitting ways in MapComplete.
