I have completed identifying unmapped villages in Krishna. There are 1174 nodes and ways tagged with "place=village".
I have made a Challenge in MapRoulette to trace roads and connect these villages with nearby highways. (We can trace houses later.) I need help with tagging the roads. I made the instructions to tag asphalt/good condition roads as "tertiary" and other non-asphalt roads as "unclassified". Since these roads connect villages with other major highways/town/other villages, the tags tertiary/unclassified seemed optimal. Identifying and tagging these unmapped villages took around 8 hours and spread across a week! At this rate, it might take several months for me to just tag Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. I would really need help from others speeding this up. If anyone's interested, we can organise and work together.
