Ravi, extracting data from Google Maps is illegal, not sure if you want to
head down that path.

Here is how you can extract the data you want from OSM.
1. Check the http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Map_Features documentation
for the `key` and `value` of the features you are interested in
2. Go to http://overpass-turbo.eu and browse the map to the area you are
interested in
3. Click `Wizard` and type in the search string in the format `key=value`.
Eg, if you want hospitals, type `amenity=hospital`
4. Click build and run to execute the query
5. You can use the export tab to save your results in geojson, kml or other
format
6. Use QGIS from qgis.org if you want to convert this to other formats like
shapefiles or convert polygons to points

If you want an easy to follow tutorial on using Overpass query language for
advanced operations try http://osmlab.github.io/learnoverpass//en/

Documenation: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Overpass_turbo

If you are not finding the data you want on OSM, you can add it or
encourage others to add it by editing https://www.openstreetmap.org . Just
click the edit button, and you can add a building live in a few seconds.
