Here's your reminder that you can literally put a place on the map on #OpenStreetMap! This island town and surrounding residential areas in Papua New Guinea were completely missing from every #OvertureMaps Dataset which includes (but is not limited to) #Esri, #Microsoft, and #Google data.

I mapped the area on OpenStreetMap today, creating possibly the first data source for buildings in this little town!

openstreetmap.org/#map=17/-6.9

A map of coastlines in Papa New Guinea, only a school landuse, soccer field, and place=town node were mapped.
The same area mapped out with buildings, residential areas, and place=hamlet nodes.
A map of the area in QGIS, there's a popup showing that no data in the region was found in the Overture Buildings dataset.
