Hello everyone,

I would like to request the addition of a missing village to OpenStreetMap. The village is called Charchall, located in the Akre District, Sawsana Subdistrict, Duhok Governorate, in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.

Basic information:

🏘️ Village name: Charchall

🗺️ District: Akre

🏞️ Subdistrict: Sawsana

🏴 Governorate: Duhok – Kurdistan Region, Iraq

🧾 Postal Code: 24005

🛣️ Main connecting road: Charchall Road

📍 Nearby village: benatah

This village is recognized by local government maps, but it is still missing from OpenStreetMap. We kindly ask for it to be added so that the area can be better represented for residents, navigation, and future development.

Hely: Charchall, Akre Central Subdistrict, Akre District, Nineveh Governorate, Iraq

Hi Harkimuhamad. With the information you provide, it’s hard to do this. Benatah is not on OSM either, or at least I can’t find it with that non Arabic name.

Luckily for you, you can add them yourself. With this same account that you used to send this message, you can edit the map. If you need help, try to find the OSM community for your are, country or general region (not sure how the different languages are intelligible among them, sorry).

Or: at least provide the coordinates and people will be able to do some armchair mapping, but things that can only seem from the ground, like shops, bus routes, so many things, will have to be mapped by local people.

There’s a lot of info on how to map. Just shout if you need help with that. Good luck and happy mapping.
