Open Street Map is also the outcome of Crowd Sourcing. It is collecting huge data with help of general public, researchers have started analysing the data rather than collecting it. The aim of this study is to review the research work for assessment of Open Street Map Data. It is concluded that the most of research work on assessment of Open Street map data has been done for countries like Germany, UK & USA. But the authenticity and accuracy of reference data still unanswered. Another issue that is concluded by this review, in context to Indian subcontinent, is the requirement of through analysis of Open Street Map data.
