NAME

       josm - Java OpenStreetMap Editor

SYNOPSIS

       josm

DESCRIPTION

       josm is an editor for OpenStreetMap written in Java 1.5.

       OpenStreetMap  is  a  project  aimed squarely at creating and providing
       free geographic data such as street maps to anyone who wants  them.  It
       allows  you  to view, edit and use geographical data in a collaborative
       way from anywhere on earth.  The project was started because most  maps
       you  think  of as free actually have legal or technical restrictions on
       their use, holding back people from using them in creative,  productive
       or unexpected ways.
