Thanks for the analysis Jennings, I think it would be useful to also see how many kilometers of road have paid mappers added, how many buildings were added, etc

It would provide another dimension to compare.

When I was working at Telenav and we were improving parts of the world, we did this and found that in that year we provided 17.7% of all road geometry edits, around 94% of road restrictions, etc. https://twitter.com/apphil/status/898414703344402439

We could work together to create for next year also some stats regarding length and/or count for different mapped features.

My son was just born and I am currently rearranging the house a little, but in one month I will be done and will setup my Postgres DB server so I can load the OSM Planet file (if I will be able to, could not managed to do this in the past), or create a pipeline to load and import parts of the world, and run analysis on each country or continent)

Or even try to see if I can only parse the OSM changesets and extract the data from there.

Could you upload the svg template to the wiki? Also, not sure what fonts did I use, and if the SVG is rendered properly

Hi GeoMechain, here is the SVG https://www.dropbox.com/s/t53185ehsmzgdtb/JOSM%20Kayboard%20Layourt%20final%20cu%20tot%20cu%20text.svg?dl=0

WIth Osmium i did not tried, i tried with osm-history-renderer so that i can load the data in postgres, but it failed every single time

Hi, thanks for the hint, i did not used this command :)

Nice work, and i love the technical part. More tech explanations :D But the same, first the everyday explanation, and then the tech part

Hi, i am casting the geometry as geography for accurate results. So this is why i don`t specify the CRS

You can read a better explanation then mine here http://gis.stackexchange.com/a/6683/12422

@jochen nice tool, so low level. I will try to test it on a virtual machine, i also like the other tools from your repo
