Android Offline Map for specific location (Iraq_karbala)

I have an offline map with useful osmdroid library. Everything works correctly (getting image from OpenStreetMap and routing and marker and ....)

but my problem is: this app is developed for Iraq(Karbal). for this place (Karbala) Only "high street" names have been registered on the OpenStreetMap but I need more details. I have not enough time to add map place (name of avenue) to this place on the OpenStreetMap.

Can you give me Idea?

Is there a library or another app that is useful in an offline map (even non-free)?

It looks like even Google Maps has very incomplete data for this area, and the Google Maps API doesn't permit offline use. OpenStreetMap is fairly unique in offering offline data downloads - it's definitely the most complete project of its type, if not the only project of its type.

If you're in a position to walk the streets or find a paper map of the area, it would be a great help to the community if you added to the OpenStreetMap data. It's remarkably quick and easy to do - just ask me if you need any help. I would offer to help enter data given a scan of a street map, but I don't know anything about Arabic, much less how to type it.
