Anganwadi Centers and Health Centers Import from Open Data Telangana

Introduction

The Open Mapping Hub Asia-Pacific, which is a regional hub of the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT), and Telangana Open Data, which is a unit in the Digital Media Wing of Telangana IT's E&C Department, are working together to collect data and provide information accessible to local people through OSM Data Imports. The goal is to provide a single point of reference for healthcare workers, aid agencies, government agencies, and citizens who need access to a highly curated dataset of healthcare facilities, critical datasets, and government and public infrastructure data. Adding these critical datasets in OSM creates a valuable resource for a wide range of applications, providing detailed information that can support decision-making and planning at the state level.

To fill the data gaps in OpenStreetMap related to health facilities, the Open Mapping Hub Asia-Pacific and Telangana Open Data are collaborating to integrate the local government's Anganwadi Centers and Health Centers Datasets into OSM. Telangana Open Data's dataset is open to the public and is being updated regularly. Through a Map Roulette Challenge, the open data may now be utilized to update existing childcare and health locations in OSM and add new childcare and health facilities to the map.

Data Quality Approach

To ensure the quality of the data import, we employ multiple publicly available tools. As part of our strategy, we use these instruments to guarantee the reliability of the imported data.

Overpass Turbo

1. Open JOSM and run this Overpass Turbo query.
2. Use the JOSM validator or another tool to check them one by one.

OSMCha

1. We can use OSMCha to track any suspicious changesets from this behavior. This OSMCha filter as an example.
2. The MapRoulette challenge should be a very specific job and not be about getting a lot of data. We can now go to the "Order by" button.
3. Click "Descending/ascending object created/modified/deleted" one at a time.
4. The goal is to find out if any changes were made properly or if too much data was changed.
5. For example, this person only deleted object. Use the challenge's instructions to determine whether something is relevant.

Changeset Discussion

1. When discussing a user's edit with another contributor, the changeset discussion is the preferred location. This discussion is public, which allows for contributor collaboration.

Automatic Process

1. This add-on for Chrome-based and Mozilla browsers lets you run Overpass Turbo query in a specific time interval.
2. Go to your OSMCha saved filter and country-specific changeset discussion page. Then add the RSS feed link to QuiteRSS or any RSS reader.

Finding

These are common errors from JOSM Validator while doing validation.

1. Property values contain multiple white spaces. The tag name has an extra space. We can either remove the unnecessary space or correct the naming (if you have local knowledge).
2. Please add more if you find more issue.
