Hello Krishan,

welcome to OpenStreetMap and happy to see you folks contributing to better IIT BHU map.

I just want to highlight that "Gandhi Smriti Extension Girls Hostel" is already marked as building (see way/857428859), so you need not to add a node. It's duplicate and not required.

Feel free to join OSM India Telegram group https://t.me/OSMIndia for any doubts.

Cheers!

Hello Jatin Singh,

Welcome to OpenStreetMap and happy to see you people contributing to creating better IIT BHU map.

I just want to highlight, that marked "STATIONARY SHOP" name isn't required unless it's the name of the shop. You can remove the name from it.

Cheers!

Hello jonathan maan,
Welcome aboard and happy to see you people mapping IIT BHU in such details. I just want to highlight that
"advertisement board iit bhu" can't be marked as natural=wetland (natural=wetland) because the building/POI isn't a wetland. Please add appropriate tags.

You can always consult OpenStreetMap wiki for finding the relevant tag osm.wiki/Main_Page

Cheers!

Hello Vaibhavbel, this changeset carry multiple hamlets with name as "unknown". Was this part of an import which had empty or no name data fields in some places leading to addition of "unknown"?

sahilister

also add 2 gate.

hello,
I recently stumbled upon your changes. Can you use descriptive changeset comments as described in osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments . It helps verify and correct what was changed.

thanks!

Hello hello, I'll be there.

I remember interesting use case you described but usage of source tags here is incorrect, specially in cases where nodes/areas/relations already exist on OSM.

cheers!

Hello hochelagan,
seems you're adding `source:name=terra.in` tag in all PT ways, which seems like spam. Please refrain from using OSM as such.

Hi didier2020, I know it's been a long time since you mapped this area in Bhuj, Gujarat, India but wanted to ask a few things regarding this changeset:
I don't think, nor I am able to see Sector numbers in hundreds like "Sector 468" in other maps of Bhuj.
From the source marked here ie http://osmose.openstreetmap.fr/en/errors/?country=india_gujarat&item=4110 , I'm not able to understand how this sector thing came to be.

Can you help me understand it?

Thanks!

Likewise here, `landuse=institutional` with `office=government` better suited for this as well?

Hi apnkpr,
wouldn't `landuse=institutional` with `office=government` better suited for Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Department ?

Hi syedk,
Great to see your work and thanks for making OpenStreetMaps data better with actual ground truth correction. A minor suggestion around making changes in smaller areas at once. For example, in this changeset, the bbox is pan India which makes checking what changed while also polluting edit history for others.

Hope you'll understand. Feel free to drop by in OSM India telegram group at https://t.me/OSMIndia for any clarification.

Cheers!

Hi Akshat, great to see you mapping details in various areas. Just wanted to request addition of proper changeset comments as it helps identify/fix what is changed.

You can read more at osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

yes. It's covered by a shed like structure.

Hi Dhruv Rathee, I see that you have made changes along a very large stretch of the border without mentioning what you're doing in changeset and source relied on for it.

Can you:
i) Add descriptive changeset comments so that it's easier to see what you changed?
ii) Not make changes spread across one country wide in one changeset. Makes later amendments difficult.

Thanks!

Hi Milind,
First of all welcome onboard. It's nice seeing more localized mapping. I just want to highlight a tagging mistake. The road you mapped ie "Sahares Residency Road Chhindwara" shouldn't be marked highway=trunk or highway=secondary as they're local roads in residential area, so should be highway=residential. This applies to all the road you mapped here - osm.org/#map=18/22.06667/78.93909 . A India specific road classification document can be found here osm.wiki/India/Tags/Highway .

Feel free to ask, when in doubt. Happy mapping!

Cheers!

Hi Tanmay, seeing addition name=old_del_test on building=train_station in way/1165369599#map=17/28.66184/77.22662 in this changeset. Don't think that is the correct name for it or if it is, please quote source for verification.

Cheers!

Hi, you have added few place of worship nodes like node/10757886331 which seems to be inside river or stream area. Can share the source of these?

Cheers!

Hi BhargavKrish2122, It's great seeing OSM contribution by you on improving roads in India. Just a suggestion, can narrow down the change areas on upload as the bbox shows changes pan-India and can't be truely figured what exact areas were changed.

Thanks!
