OSM Chennai Mapping Party – Tambaram Market
Tambaram Market
The OpenStreetMap community of Chennai invites everyone to our mapping party at Tambaram Market!
Tambaram is a bustling commercial hub - Shanmugam Road, the main shopping street opposite the railway station, is packed with wholesale grocers, vegetable vendors, and small businesses. Almost none of it exists on OpenStreetMap yet. Let's change that together.
What we'll do:
- Meet at Vasantha Bhavan for a short intro: what is OSM, what are we mapping today, and how to do it on your phone
- Split into small teams and fan out into the market
- Regroup, share what we found, and celebrate over refreshments
All you need is a smartphone — no mapping experience required! (Android preferred. Also bring: a power bank, charging cable, and water bottle.)
📱 Before you come, please:
- Create a free OpenStreetMap account at openstreetmap.org
- Install StreetComplete (Android) or Every Door (Android/iOS)or MapComplete
📌 Meeting point: Vasantha Bhavan, Tambaram
🗓️ Date: Sunday, 12th July 2026 🕓 Time: 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM
This event is free and open to everyone.
