OpenStreetMap meta data collector

Went out and mapped the streets of a town a couple of days ago and came away with a better idea on how to make things easier for myself, in any case turned my preliminary ideas into an app for the Android.

There is a lot of room for improvement, and I still need to figure out how to plot the currect track on a gmaps page to show what has and hasn't been mapped to make it more useful for doing the whole thing paperless.

From a comment on the Android Market:

Keeps GPS tuned on when exiting app with home button. Poor battery.

You can't "exit" an application by hitting the home button, it can/will still run in the background unless you hit the back button which does exit most applications.

Also new version, this one displays a gmap as the main screen and you can hit the menu key to add meta information about your current location, on the gmap your GPS trace will be shown so you know where you've been.
