Those interested in some OSM history: The first Indian roads was added by me in Chennai when the rest of the country is blank save for some railway lines in Mumbai. http://mvexel.github.io/thenandnow/#14/13.0370/80.2714
Interestingly, Madras was also where the first baseline for the Great Trigonometrical Survey <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Trigonometrical_Survey> was measured in 1802. Bengaluru was not even in the correct location: http://mvexel.github.io/thenandnow/#8/13.023/77.536 Posted by Martijn van Exel on talk-us. -- Arun Ganesh (planemad) <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Planemad> <http://j.mp/ArunGanesh>
