Hi Ahasan,
We will be pleased to support you for this action.
I would suggest that you first organize a remote mapping session with your
local experienced mappers, trace the map in detail (roads + buildings) and add
as much infos as you can. This will greatly facilitate the field work later.
There is good Bing and Mapbox imagery available. This should facilitate tracing
buildings an roads.
Infos such as street, locality, neighbourhood names and important
infrastructures such as hospitals, etc. will help later people to locate them
when doing the field work.
We often prefer to use the JOSM editor since it is possible to work even in the
context of bad internet connection. There is also a building plugin that
facilitate tracing the buildings.
In the preparation of the Field work, it would help that you test your field
work methodology, including adding the information to OSM later. While some
people are mapping some areas, you could alternate and do some field work
collection to test your methodology both using phones and paper. Since you only
have 3 phones and 1 gps, it will be important to also use FieldPapers. Phones
and gps could be used to trace streets and compare with the map made from
aerial imagery. There are also questionnaires available that help document the
infrastructures.1. Phone Android applications such as OsmAnd with an offline
map do not require access to internet (If it was possible to have more phones
it would help I think)
2. FieldPaper printouts where people can take notes.
