NAME

6       josm - Java OpenStreetMap Editor
7

SYNOPSIS

9       josm
10

DESCRIPTION

12       josm is an editor for OpenStreetMap written in Java 1.5.
13
14       OpenStreetMap  is  a  project  aimed squarely at creating and providing
15       free geographic data such as street maps to anyone who wants  them.  It
16       allows  you  to view, edit and use geographical data in a collaborative
17       way from anywhere on earth.  The project was started because most  maps
18       you  think  of as free actually have legal or technical restrictions on
19       their use, holding back people from using them in creative,  productive
20       or unexpected ways.
