[Talk-in] Fwd: [OpenStreetMap] NH544
Hello. Please note that the rationalization of Highways has been put on hold. Only new highways and state highways being declared NHs are using this numbering scheme. This is true for the entire Country and not just for South India as stated in the mail below. NH47 stays NH47. NH544 is not the new number yet. Regards. Prasanth -- Forwarded message -- From: Heinz_V m-441305-d3c...@messages.openstreetmap.org Date: Mon, Jun 30, 2014 at 10:39 PM Subject: [OpenStreetMap] NH544 To: rajanp...@gmail.com Hi Prasanth Rajan, Heinz_V http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Heinz_V has sent you a message through OpenStreetMap with the subject NH544: == Dear Prasant Rajan I saw that you reverted the renumbering of the NH544 back to NH47 without searching the contact to me. I am a longtime mapper in OSM and never found a behavior like this. I am not interested in an edit-war. Please post in the Indiam Forum why some NHs in South India should be treated in another way than all other Nhs in India.

[Talk-in] Quality of satellite imagery
Hello. Is there a time-bound update of satellite imagery of India; some of the areas are cloud covered as well. Does OSM run a due-diligence before publishing the new images and does OSM also ensure map alignment between old and new imageries when the publishing happens? I suppose these are rather basic questions regarding OSM in India... The reason I am prompted to ask the aforementioned is the difference in the quality (even in brightness) of imagery in OSM and G-Maps. Thanks and regards.

Re: [Talk-in] Quality of satellite imagery
Thank you. Areas in Pathanamthitta and Kozhenchery in Kerala are two examples. I will try and keep a note of all such areas I see and send in a separate note. Regards.

Which areas do you see cloud covering? Can we detail all such places so that we can keep an eye going forward? On Tue, Jun 3, 2014 at 9:06 PM, Prasanth Rajan rajanp...@gmail.com wrote: Hello.

Re: [Talk-in] No rationalization of NHs numbers
Hello Naveen. The morth link shows old numbers. In the Kerala NH list (for example) NH47 is shown which is the old number - rationalization would have changed NH47 to NH544 etc. Similarly NH7 is still NH7 - it would have become NH44 as per rationalization. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_National_Highways_in_India#Rationalization_of_Highway_numbers and the NHAI website both also list the old numbers. The first link also mentions that the rationalization is on-hold. Regards. Prasanth On Fri, May 30, 2014 at 6:08 PM, Naveen Francis navee...@gmail.com wrote: I dont think it is on hold.

Re: [Talk-in] No rationalization of NHs numbers
Hello Naveen. I sully agree with you; new highways are based on 2 digit and 3 digit scheme but at the moment based on the MORTH and the NHAI data, the old numbers remain as-is. NH185 and NH183A in Kerala are new additions to the 9 NHs and they certainly use the new numbering. The DORTH site still lists all old numbers - Karnataka shows NH7 and no NH44 etc. On an off note, the physical signs on the highways are quite interesting now. I see both NH7 and NH44 near Bangalore leading to a lot of confusion to the first time users of the road :) Regards.

Govt is using new highway numbering for newly declared highways. And now few tenders floated by nhai have also new highway numbering.
