I am interested in mapping public amenities in general and in particular:

1. Public Transportation nodes and routes
2. Public Libraries
3. Public healthcare facilities
4. Water bodies - Rivers and lakes
5. Public spaces and nature preserves (protected forests, parks, nature trails etc.)
6. Public toilets
7. Postboxes and post-offices
8. Public schools

Mostly focusing on the Indian subcontinent

Useful Overpass queries for public transport mapping

Download all roads - except residential roads and other unmaintained tracks

[out:xml][timeout:90][bbox:{{bbox}}];
(
  nwr["highway"="primary"];
  nwr["highway"="primary_link"];
  nwr["highway"="secondary"];
  nwr["highway"="secondary_link"];
  nwr["highway"="tertiary"];
  nwr["highway"="tertiary_link"];
  nwr["highway"="trunk"];
  nwr["highway"="trunk_link"];
);
(._;>;);
out meta;

Downloading bus_stops and platforms. Excluding routes (nw instead of nwr)

[out:xml][timeout:90][bbox:{{bbox}}];
(
  nwr["highway"="bus_stop"];
  nwr["public_transport"="platform"];
  nwr["public_transport"="stop_position"];
  nw["bus"="yes"];
);
(._;>;);
out meta;
