You can and you should contribute - Open Street Map
Today I found out that it's actually a lot easier to contribute to Open Street Map than I thought. There are some serious gaps in house addresses in my area and I was painstakingly using the built in browser editor in the browser.
But, you can use a FOSS app (available on fdroid) called StreetComplete that makes it a lot easier to help out filling in the gaps in your local map data.
It's really fun - kind of like Pokémon Go but you are actually making an impact 😁

time for some kind of anonymizing location data sharing service, peer to peer or federated protocol? that might be interesting, or sketchy, not sure which.
There is OpenTraffic but it seems unfinished and not implemented anywhere as far as i can tell. Edit: just to clarify, ive only heard from others that it's unfinished, havent checked myself :)
That's a super interesting project. For anyone else, the project overview has some great system level diagrams:

It looks really interesting - but unfortunately it seems it's abandoned? Last time it was updated was 7 years ago...
