Adding Multilingual Data in OpenStreetMap (OSM)

Adding Multilingual Data in OpenStreetMap (OSM)

Today I worked on adding multilingual support in OpenStreetMap using the web editor.
Add one more language (Telugu) text to a node point.
Steps I followed:

  1. Opened OpenStreetMap website
  2. Selected a location (node point)
  3. Clicked on “Edit” (iD editor)
  4. Added multilingual tag:
    • "name = Gowri Hall"
    • "name:te = గౌరి హాల్"
  5. Saved the changes with a proper comment

Outcome:
Successfully added Telugu language data to the map.
