Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Sometimes the user types in the name of something in ODK Collect slightly wrong.
For example in Bali we mapped buildings inside of compounds. When providing the compound names as a free text entry, users entered similar names that only varied slightly.
Describe the solution you'd like
We could probably use a library like thefuzz (already in osm-fieldwork I believe) for fuzzy matching of strings.
We could lump together similar string values, which would provide better insights into data when it is nicely processed/cleaned.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Of course, there is a risk of false positives and incorrectly modifying values.
We should set a high threshold for matching, so only very similar words can match.
