I know things like streetcomplete, and GoMap exist to help mobile users make accurate surveys in real time. (uploading GPX tracks, completing quests, etc)

I’m wondering. Has anyone ever considered the idea of writing a mobile app capable of using a phone’s sensors to capture images and do basic object recognition? Gathering the embedded GPX data in the image, and then automatically creating a changeset?

It would be incredible because then you could mount your phone inside of your vehicle and drive around. Find a safe stopping point, and then review the changeset before you upload it to make sure it’s accurate.

I’m not a developer, so this idea might be completely ridiculous. I just thought I would ask to see if anyone knows of any apps that exist, or are in development.
