OpenStreetMap is participating in Google Summer of Code 2025

Hi OpenStreetMap team,

I’m Sanyam, a developer with experience in Java, Spring Boot, and PostgreSQL. I’m thrilled to see OpenStreetMap joining GSoC 2025! The “Temporary road closures database and API” project immediately grabbed my attention. I think my skills align well with what the project needs, and I’d love the chance to contribute to something that makes navigation apps even better for the OSM community.

To @SimonPoole: I’m curious about what challenges might come up with this project. How do you see the system handling real-time updates or ensuring the accuracy of user-submitted data for temporary road closures? I’m really excited to dive in and learn more!
