Slight change on the venue. This will be a decentralized mapping event
happening at colleges in coordination with GNU/Linux User Groups.
Updated the wiki page -

Its rainy season now in Bengaluru and we see clogs in sewage manholes
in most of the roads in the city when it rains heavily. Volunteers of
Free Software Movement Karnataka(FSMK) <http://fsmk.org/> are
organizing 'Map your waste' mapping event using OpenStreetMap and
requesting the OSM community to join this mapping event. The idea is
to survey the area in the vicinity/neighborhood for sewage manholes,
sewage lines and public toilets using Fieldpapers
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Field_Papers> and OSMtracker
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSMtracker>/Keypad-Mapper_3
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Keypad-Mapper_3>/Mapillary
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mapillary> in GPS-enabled android
device. And then comeback to add the data to OSM using id
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Id>/JOSM
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM> editor. For adding the
data, we'll be using manhole=sewer
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:manhole> tag and
manmade=pipeline with type=sewage
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dpipeline> tags to
add sewage lines. Any suggestions on using tags are welcome.
Currently there are no manhole
<http://taginfo.openstreetmap.in/keys/manhole#overview> or sewage
<http://taginfo.openstreetmap.in/tags/man_made=pipeline#combinations>
objects mapped in India OSM(different tags used?) and looks like a
unique mapping effort. :)
