Hello Nikhil, Glad to here about your plan. I am Saikat from Navi Mumbai and we have a small team based on New Panvel (recently organized MESMapathon <http://www.phcet.ac.in/photogallery/MES-Mapathon-2017.asp>). Please let me know if you need any help with mapping using JOSM or iD editor. Our team will be happy to be a part of your initiative.
Looking forward to hear from you. Thanks, Saikat On Tue, Oct 3, 2017 at 5:30 PM, <talk-in-requ...@openstreetmap.org> wrote: > Send Talk-in mailing list submissions to > talk-in@openstreetmap.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-in > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > talk-in-requ...@openstreetmap.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > talk-in-ow...@openstreetmap.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Talk-in digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
