Hi,

My email with an attachment has not been approved because of the large size.

I have uploaded it to this location https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tnshibu/osm_data_extract/master/data/india_railway_station_list.txt

You can find the GPS co-ordinates of railways stations in India.  The “ref” refers to the Indian railway station code, I think.

The data extracted is for nodes which have the tags with key=”railway” and value=”station”.

The extracted data is pipe(‘|’) delimited.

If anyone requires similar data for other tags, let me know, I will try to extract them and give you.

Hope someone finds this useful.

 

Sutripta,

All data entered in OSM is ground validated I would assume.  Because it is entered individually by contributors, my assumption is that a person familiar with the place is the one who is entering the data to OSM.

Hi, 

Thanks. 

How does one know if an object has been groundtruthed/ validated?

The link suggested by Arun http://download.geofabrik.de/asia/india.html has a 10GB xml file which contains the required information.

I will extract it as a csv and post the results here.

Hi, 
Is the list of Railway Stations/ Junctions in India available as a CSV/ Excel file? Maybe with a column saying 'Ground truthed/ validated'. 

Sometime back there was a XML file from IR, but as pointed out by Arun Ganesh, had a lot of errors. 

Regards

Hey Shibu, you can extract it live from OSM using overpass: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/gbk 

 

If you want a shapefile of a larger area, suggest you download the OSM extract from geofabrik http://download.geofabrik.de/asia/india.html

 

The POI layer should have the railway stations.
