[Imports] GNS Data Import to Saudi map

[عبدالله عبدالرحمن]

Greetings,

We are pleased to inform you of our intention to import GNS data to OpenStreetMap. This data, compliant with the ODbL license, is highly impactful and beneficial for our local map, significantly enriching it, particularly in terms of natural and unpopulated areas. The data points have been converted and the map has been reviewed in accordance with the following OSM Wiki page:

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/GNS_Import_for_Yemen_and_Others

The data processing commenced over a year ago, and the review process, undertaken by a team of more than 5 individuals, has encompassed the following:

  *   Technical Review: All data has undergone a thorough review to ensure its accuracy and reliability.

  *   Linguistic Review: All data is being reviewed linguistically to ensure accurate translations, consistent terminology, and clear meaning.

  *   Spelling and Grammar Check: All data is being reviewed for spelling and grammar errors.

  *   Point Verification: All geographic points are being verified for accuracy and location on the map.

  *   Exclusion of Dubious Data: Any points with questionable accuracy or unknown origin are being excluded to ensure data integrity and prevent the import of inaccurate information.

Anticipated Benefits of this Import:

  *   Map Enriched with Natural Landmarks: The imported data will provide comprehensive information about natural landmarks, including mountains, valleys, deserts, and other natural features, significantly enhancing our map.

  *   Enhanced User Experience: The imported data will facilitate a more user-friendly and intuitive map experience, enabling users to locate natural landmarks with ease, plan exploratory trips, and discover new places.
