My mapping
I started mapping in OSM in an effort to ensure cycling infrastructure was being captured with meaningful tagging; however, with time, this has expanded into many sub-topics. I focus heavily on cycling and pedestrian infrastructure, and I try to capture details that help those with various accessibility needs.

I do the majority of my edits and cleanup in JOSM. Aerial imagery is a part of the survey cycle, with large-scale structures being identified first, followed by in-person surveys to capture increasing levels of detail. When I'm out and about, I use Vespucci for adding new features, or updating features that are easy enough to modify on a small touch screen. Vespucci is handy for things like adding point features or splitting roads when, for example, StreetComplete asks me about the surface quality of a road, but the segment is simply too long. After splitting the road, I can redownload the area and carry on with prompts to help me capture features consistently.
Paper Surveys
When time allows, I conduct targeted surveys where I focus on a specific area, feature, or tagging group. This may mean trying to improve a single tag, like road width or building color, or it may focus on adding attributes that help improve 3D rendering, like adding roof shapes, building/roof height, etc.
