Thanks, Muzirian ;) Can you help with mapping villages? You can start with your native district. Here is what I did:
I picked up a district, Krishna, and made a total sweep and identified villages that are not yet mapped. I placed a node with place=village tag. I don't know the names of the villages, so I didn't put the name tag. I was able to map 1000 villages. Once it's completed, I have prepared the MapRoulette Challenge[1] to trace roads in these villages and connect to the nearby highways. Instead of the node[place=village], an area with landuse=residential can also be made. But that is too tedious. I don't know the names of the villages, but I hope we can tag them later, probably using DataMeet data! Do you have other thoughts?
