I am currently working on the redevelopment of the OSM Tasking Manager application with my company thinkWhere (http://www.thinkwhere.com/).
The application allows users to select task squares for mapping, then launch JOSM by remote control zoomed to the right area with imagery added to do the mapping. It currently uses load_and_zoom<https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help/RemoteControlCommands#load_and_zoom> and imagery remote control commands I am looking for a way to send feature data to JOSM so that users can visualise where they should be mapping or reviewing mapping done by others. The features don’t become OSM data, they are just a visual guide. Is there a way for me to send data to JOSM to load over the remote command api? Or a way for me to get JOSM to request data from a URL? I have investigated the options at https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help/RemoteControlCommands, but I haven’t found a way to get this working. So far the only way I have found is that users download a gpx from my app to their computer, then do file>open in josm, but I want to see if there is a way to do it without that manual download/upload.
