Improving the details around Central Station at Thiruvananthapuram
Арахецна PlaneMad 16 March 2016, мотт: EnglishAlways satisfying to go into the map and add some sugar. Especially in the town centre.
This is the main station in Thiruvananthapuram a city of close to 1 million in India.

Cool!
Btw, I know nothing of mapping in India - is it common to have traffic signals as landmarks? (the Chenthitta Signal in SE corner of the map)

Yes, we don’t have a consistent addressing scheme or street signages in India. Finding a home usually involves asking for a landmark like an important junction, building or shop and then asking the local people for the exact house.

Great to see your edits. As a person who has lived in Trivandrum for two years, nice to see the city gaining more details in OSM.
