Re: [Talk-in] GSoC Idea -- Openstreetmap Indic Localization helper tool

This tool is very much needed. This idea should perhaps be suggested on the GSoC 2017 Project Ideas page on OpenStreetMap wiki[1] or on the indicproject discuss site[2] for prospective students and community members to take a look at it.

[Talk-in] Classification of Indian places

Bringing this back again since there was no clear acceptance on the classification of Indian places[1] from last discussion some years back[2]. I can see that many small towns are tagged as cities in some states[3]. And the List of Cities in India entry on enwiki is by population which seems to be

Re: [Talk-in] Multilingual name tagging convention in India

I too agree with keeping the current convention of name tags for multilingual names. Belgium has just two languages and in context of our regional languages, first mapper rule can create conflicts as Arun indicated previously. Perhaps we should try to improve the current state of multilingual

Re: [Talk-in] Translating names on iD

You just need to zoom-in until the /Edit/ button is enabled and click there to add the name to the relation. I could add Amharic language name for India[1]. And the country boundary relations will normally have a label node where the names can also be added[2]. For India, the node representing

[Talk-in] Objects tagged with name=.

I came across more than 300 objects tagged with name=. tag in India[1] and they seem to be accidentally tagged with dot/point names while editing. Majority of them are in Kerala and Tamil Nadu states[2] and all of them are tagged for ways. I don't think any of these ways have dot/point names

Re: [Talk-in] On a interface for translation

Hi Sibi, Great to see some progress with respect to adding Indic languages in OSM. Although bulk uploading of data is generally discouraged, you can look at Nomino[1] which is specifically made for name translation. iD editor may be better to start with, but you can also try out JOSM[2] and

Re: [Talk-in] On bulk download of data

You can get the all the regional data from geofabrik's India extract - http://download.geofabrik.de/asia/india.html If you're trying to run some analysis on the data, India extract of OSM QA tiles would be useful - https://s3.amazonaws.com/mapbox/osm-qa-tiles/latest.country/india.mbtiles.gz
