[Osmf-talk] As a Foundation Member I am starting a Volunteer project to develop my country's whole map in OpenStreetMap

[Ahasanul Hoque]

Dear Mr. Alam,
I highly appreciate your initiative for contributing OSM Bangladesh data.
I think I had written you on a past email thread, again I would suggest you
explore locally before writing to the wider community for support. Do you
know  OSM  Bangladesh is one of the most dynamic communities in Bangladesh?
The community and members have been awarded many times for their
contribution locally and globally in different projects. Not only that we
have several strong OSM university youthmappers chapters who are also
leading various projects. OSM Community Bangladesh also
collaboratively worked and working with different international and
national agencies what resulted in a good size of Bangladesh country data
on osm. In 2013  when I started forming the community, the OSM Bangladesh
data size was 4/5 megabytes and now you will find the data size is more
than 110 megaytes !!  You will see every day the OSM Bangladesh data is
being updated. Almost all the major cities are being extensively mapped by
PATHAO OSM team where most of our community expert mappers are working. The
University chapters are also actively mapping and starting projects in the
northern and southern part of Bangladesh.The Rohingya  Very soon, I gonna
start an International project in several districts in Northern Part of
Bangladesh.
