JOSM Applet

JOSM can be used in different ways. It is a standalone application, a webstart application and a Java applet. This page describes the usage as Java applet.

The URL for the access to JOSM as Java applet is applet. This URL supports additional arguments:

argumentdefaultdescription
width100%width of the applet area
height100%height of the applet area
url-URL to be loaded at startup

The applet has some differences compared to the normal JOSM.

  • Not all options are available. For example all functions accessing local files are disabled.
  • Preferences are stored on the JOSM server (not OSM server).
    • Either you are logged in on the JOSM website or the applet will ask you to provide login data on startup.
    • You can use the applet also without login, but you can't load/save preferences in this case.
    • You need to upload preferences to server to keep them in following sessions (last entry in edit menu).
    • It is recommended to use OAuth, or OSM username will be saved in plaintext on JOSM server (password is removed).

NOTE: Do not confuse JOSM and OSM logins. They are separate.
