We answered as best we could today.

But this community always knows more than
any two people at a stall.

If you have better explanations, simpler
ways to say these things, or examples that
actually click for beginners, drop them
below.

There are people from today ready to start.
The right answer could get them mapping 🙂

Went full mapper-mode around Chitlapakkam & Tambaram this weekend 🗺️

Police station, EV charger, temples, play areas, pharmacies,
all missing from OSM, all on the map now.

If you're in Chennai and want to map your neighbourhood,

OSM Chennai Mapping Party No.3 done 😎

2 mappers (Me & @sivaraam) 26 changesets. 144 edits.

We traced pathways through Koyambedu markets, tagged shops, ATMs, a bank, greengrocer stalls, gates, and road surfaces.

If you're in Chennai and want to help put your neighbourhood on the map properly, join us next time. No experience needed, just curiosity. You can also check https://osmcal.org/ for latest mapping events

Mapping Party at Mylapore Market — May 17th

We had a small but productive mapping party at Mylapore Market on May 17th, with three mappers hitting the streets to capture what's on the ground.

Between 3 of us, we pushed 57 changesets across the area. Shops and places got the most attention with 96 edits — names, types, opening hours, whether they still exist.

Recently, I had the opportunity to conduct a field mapping activity in Mumbai, specifically in the rapidly expanding region of Mira Bhayandar.

Working with a small but highly motivated team, we used the 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗗𝗼𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗽𝗽 to map critical infrastructure and retail ecosystems on the ground.
