Hi all:

The Thimphu city (Thimphu Thromde) has released some data (building footprints, street geometries (with names) and housenumber nodes of the city to import into OSM.

A group of Kathmandu Living Labs is going to train local Bhutan people in OSM mapping and build an OSM community in that remote and secluded country. This import will complement the data.

I am assisting on the import and wrote the corresponding wiki [1] that explains the process.

As there isn't any local OSM community yet, we contacted the HOT mailing list for opinions.

I welcome all comments to improve the import.

Cheers,

Rafael.
