OpenStreetMap Foundation 2023 chairperson's report

Subject: Request for Improved Mapping Coverage and Expression of Interest for Internship

Dear Chairperson,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing as a concerned user and a Postgraduate from NIT Warangal, India, specializing in RS&GIS. I have been an active contributor to OpenStreetMap (OSM) and have noticed significant gaps in mapping, particularly in South India.

The roadways, water features, and other essential elements in this region seem to be outdated or missing. Visibility issues also persist, making it challenging for users to navigate accurately. I am eager to contribute to addressing these discrepancies and updating the data.

Additionally, I would like to express my interest in an internship opportunity with OpenStreetMap. I believe that actively participating in the improvement of mapping coverage in my areas of expertise could not only enhance the data quality but also provide valuable insights for my academic and professional growth.

I kindly request your consideration for an internship opportunity and look forward to contributing to the enhancement of OSM.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
