    In general, map.geo.admin.ch is great for planning hikes - you can choose the hiking trails overlay (as well as "closures hiking trails" - type in the search bar - to check all is OK. Clicking the little settings gear icon next to the map name in the sidebar gives you info on what it's showing), and use the "draw & measure on map" tool to see how long a given route would be.

    Depending on how easy you find it to get around, and what you mean by "all the cool mountains", you could go up to Crans Montana by train and funicular via Sierre, maybe about 3h travel time each way (but very pretty for the most part). It's at about 1500m - not high enough to cause any noticeable problems for people with normal lung function, but obviously I can't speak for you - and has nice views over several of the high Valais peaks on the south side of the Rhone valley. If you are up to gentle strolls then the bisses of Valais could be right up your street, they are flat paths along old irrigation channels that traverse the hillsides at around 1500m, usually with public transport access, and often have lovely views. Those on the north side of the Rhone valley have good views of the high mountains on its south side. You can also stick lower down in the vineyards, though often the paths there go up and down quite steeply so a bit of route planning would be needed (map.geo.admin.ch is an awesome website for that I find, if you can interpret topographic maps)

    I used StreetComplete when I had an Android phone. It looks for missing data near you, and gives you a really nice interface to input that data.

    They are working on an iOS build, and I can't wait to start using it again.

    StreetComplete <https://streetcomplete.app/> is an Android app for editing OpenStreetMap in a limited fashion by placing "quest" markers on the map around you. It focuses on beginners and as such makes pretty much everything easy to understand and decide, with lots of questions having completely custom UI specific to that question. Some can be seen here: https://github.com/streetcomplete/streetcomplete#screenshots

  • Show HN: OpenStreetMap statistics that can be updated with GitHub actions
    6 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 30 Nov 2022
    Hey there, I'm an OpenStreetMap enthusiast and I was curious what kind of impact the app I am using has (I use StreetComplete[1], an easy-to-use Android app to add missing information). I couldn't find data for all my questions and some were not up to date, but I found a few starting points on how to do it myself[2][3]. Soon I realized that many more interesting questions about OpenStreetMap in general could be answered with the data and I created a website (https://piebro.github.io/openstreetmap-statistics/) to show them. Since I want the data to be up to date, I added a script to update everything easily and packed it in GitHub Actions so I can update the data with a few clicks every month.

    If you have questions or feedback, feel free to comment here or open an issue at the repo.
