It's primarily based on personal judgement as there is no strict classification. Do refer to <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nepal/Roads" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nepal/Roads</a> for the description.<div>

data quality has always been an issue for any kind of geographic data. We need more mappers from different localities for this and need to grow our OSM community. But location is only one aspect of data quality, attributes provide life to the data. it is also high time to agree on standard for object (like roads, hotels, tea shops, co-operatives, tuition centers). we should have discussions on these topics. <div>

Hi Mappers,<br><br>It would be good if those who have local knowledge could correct those roads. Leaving incorrect data in OSM for long time will have detrimental effect to our effort. Many people raise questions of data quality in user-contributed data. It is difficult for them to accept that ordinary people can produce amazing maps. If those suspicious minds see these incorrect roads, it will only help them to spread mistrust about the whole dataset.<br>
