Description

It would be nice if I could define an area and only work on tasks of a specific challenge in that area. Simple bbox would be enough I think. This way I could just fix things in my country or so. I can do this through the map view, but that is tedious, because I have to zoom in again and again after each task and pick a new one, instead of just taking the next task.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the backend API paths used for challenge task selection and the map view's next-task flow. Done means a user can specify a bounding box and receive only tasks from the selected challenge within that area, without repeatedly repositioning the map.
