Hi I am wondering I cannot find any address for Pakistan to contact for queries. So I write this question in the hope to find answer to it. Question: How often the map is updated? Because, for my region in Pakistan the map seems to be years old and never updated. There has been a lot of changes in the past few years and it is difficult to locate different places now. Today, I added several locations but I wondered when I noticed that the satellite layer still showed the old map. I hope someone will answer the question and also the responsible/focal person will update different layers of the map for Pakistan. Thanks. asked 14 Aug '18, 15:46  translator7007 |
This is a static archive of our old OSM Help Site.
Please post any new questions and answers at community.openstreetmap.org.
Which map do you mean? Could you give the URL and possibly screenshot?
Here is a standard, general map, which is updated in minutes on z13+ and 1-2 times a month for the z0-12:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=6/30.657/71.290
but there are multiple maps created using OSM data, which is the only common thing between them.
It looks like being rendered on standard map:

Looking at the tags here, not everything is an office. Objects like school, hospital or police station should be tagged in a different way - please look at this list:
