Changeset: 176210161

In this changeset (176210161), I focused on improving building-level mapping by adding missing building outlines and refining structural details using Bing Maps aerial imagery.

The objective of this session was to enhance spatial accuracy and improve map completeness in the area. I ensured that:

  • Building footprints were aligned correctly with satellite imagery
  • Proper geometry was maintained
  • No duplicate structures were created
  • Tagging remained consistent with OSM standards

This edit was completed using the iD editor (v2.37.3), and I requested a review to ensure quality validation and community feedback.

Working on building details helped strengthen my understanding of:

  • Accurate polygon tracing
  • Satellite imagery interpretation
  • Clean data structuring
  • Version control within OSM changesets

I will continue improving structured building data and map quality in Karnataka.

Changeset number is 178690672

Today, I worked on improving map data around Yelahanka Taluku, Karnataka. I updated the official name of Sai Vidya Institute of Technology to reflect accurate real-world information and ensured proper tagging consistency.

In addition to correcting the name, I reviewed campus boundary structure, building tagging, and surrounding infrastructure to avoid duplication and maintain data integrity. I verified that the edits align with real-world sources and OSM tagging standards.

My focus during this session was on:

  • Accurate name correction
  • Structured campus boundary validation
  • Road connectivity refinement
  • POI accuracy improvement
  • Avoiding duplicate objects

This session helped reinforce the importance of precise tagging, version tracking, and reviewing live map data versus cached tiles. I will continue contributing to improving structured geospatial data across Karnataka.
