#PawFed is a project close to my heart. It's a collaborative map for animal welfare that bridges the #Fediverse and #OpenStreetMap.
The idea: mention @PawFed from your Mastodon account with hashtags and a location, and your report appears on the map. No signup, no app, just your existing Fediverse account.
It's not perfect yet, but the foundation is there. I will publish the source code soon under AGPL.

As for community reports, we are just getting started so the map is empty for now. It needs contributions to grow. That's the whole point :)

in reply to Fedilab Apps • • •Am I correct in my understanding that this requires one to reveal their IRL location in a public toot?
I am sorry, but I am not comfortable with that, unfortunately. I can, and will, however consider setting up another account just for this purpose. Especially since I'm using a certain fediverse app that just happens to handle multiple accounts very nicely ;)
