Some ideas
- Regional languages. Is there a regional language you speak? Make sure
that you're adding it to the map when objects have a name in that
language. Unfortunately, this isn't great for a global project because
not everyone can do it.
- Traditionally "blue-collar" areas. It's fairly well known that these
are underrepresented in OSM, and there's a lot of mapping that can be
done remotely. Something I've worked on has been mapping industrial
parks. For these, a basic mapping would be buildings, industrial area
names, building numbers, landuse, and service roads on them. Many
industrial parks have places to eat to serve the workers around them and
these are important to map too. There's lots more that could be mapped,
but this would be a good start.
- Wheelchair access has lots of resources, but isn't underrepresented in
OSM mapping.
