14. INTRODUCTION TO MAPPING
Whatdo we need?
How do we do?
How the OSM datais structured -Geometryand Tags.
And there are three ways of editingOSM -
1. Usingaerialimagery
2. UsingGPS data(*.gpx) from trackingapps through ground
survey
3. Importingexistinggeodatawhich is compatible with
ODBl(Open Database License) to OSM.

15. WHAT DO WE NEED?
GPS enabled smartphone with trackingapp for ground survey.
Osm registered account.
Tools to convertexistinggeodataif importingis to be done.

16. HOW DO WE DO?
Register and verifyaaccountin osm.
Use anyof these popular GUI editors are:
1. iD -web-based HTML5 editor(easyone)
2. JOSM -Javabased desktop editor(advanced editor)
3. Poltach -Flash-based web editor(notcommonlyused now)
Upload the datato OSM.

17. OSM DATA STRUCTURE
1. Geometry--
Node(Point): Used for mappingPoints of Interest(POIs). Ex:
Cafe's, Shop, etc.,.
Ways: Used for mappingRoads, Rivers, etc.,.
Area: Used for mappingRegionalboundaries, Buildings,
Forests, etc.,.
2. Tags --
Representhow datais saved in OSM.
Theyare atype of key-value pair
Ex: amenity:cafe, name:Coffee day, landuse:forest, etc.,.

Fdroid) to your GPS-enabled smartphone
and turn on GPS
Starttrackingbytakingnote or pic or voice
rec.
Once the trackingis done, save itand export
the track to gpx format
Copythe gpx file to the machine or upload
directlyto osm for editing.

19. Upload into your osm profile from the app

20. STARTING EDITING
