Is there a way it tool to use shapefiles to update the #openstreetmap ? I have some channel extracted from a DEM I want to add to a woodland.
Happy about a boost and looking forward to your answers!

Yes, JOSM has GeoJSON and OpenData plugins.

The technical side is only half of it though as the source has to meet the license requirements and there is a process to follow for imports:

    @malte @qgis @qgisDE @openstreetmap IIRC @josmeditor https://josm.openstreetmap.de/ has support with a plugin, otherwise simply convert to GeoJSON and you can use JOSM and @vespucci_editor. Naturally you should check that you are permitted to use the DEM to contribute to OSM.
