After walking around Baluwatar area, we realized there are much more features to be mapped than what is already there in OSM. We are thinking of going beyond roads. The idea is to explore what local issues we encounter and discuss those while Robert is here.<br>
<br>Please do not forget to bring your laptop computer, smart phone and/or handheld GPS. It is fine to attend even if you do not have any of those.<br><br>Nama<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Nov 7, 2012 at 3:46 PM, Rajeev Amatya <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:notification+5_7vj7hd@facebookmail.com" target="_blank">notification+5_7vj7hd@facebookmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Nama Ji, that's great. It's good to see that you are also organizing more parties. Have you decided which area we are focusing on? The Baluwatar area is pretty much done (ref <a href="http://www.facebook.com/tripatheea" style="color:#3b5998;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">Aashish Tripathee</a>).
