Hi folks, There's a project afoot in the OpenStreetMap and Wikidata communities to get together Indian Railways data.
One major part of it: Properly mapping all the railway stations of India, and ensuring they have wikidata entries. Here's a wiki page set up for it: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Indian_Railways I'm cross-posting from OpenStreetMap India Telegram <https://t.me/OSMIndia> group: (Arun Ganesh): There seems to be around 7000 stations located. There still ~1.5k missing. A lot more need names, refs and wikidata links. Overpass: *http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/EC4 <http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/EC4>* (Srihari Thalla) : Last year I created two MapRoulette Challenges to tag station codes and add Wiki tags *https://maproulette.org/mr3/challenge/2403 <https://maproulette.org/mr3/challenge/2403>* *https://maproulette.org/mr3/challenge/2404 <https://maproulette.org/mr3/challenge/2404>* -------- The overpass query above queries the whole country and may be slow or timeout. I adapted the query to work only on the map area being viewed, so you can zoom into smaller regions. And changed a few things, included a legend in the comments to explain. *https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/EL9 <https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/EL9>* Want to get involved? Engage here.
