[OSM-np] Help From OSM Team in Nepal

[Nama Budhathoki]

Hi Saroj,

If we had VDC boundaries in OSM, we could embed them in Wikipedia articles.
Unfortunately, OSM does not have such political boundary mapped in it yet.

Mapping political boundary in OSM is bit challenging as neither background
image is sufficient nor we can travel along the VDC boundaries with GPS.
Thanks anyway for putting your requirement. We hope to come up with some
ideas for it.

Nama
