Re: [OSM-talk] Facebook map frequency of updates?
DaveF, FB is working on the problem. They hope to be able to speed up the process which as I understand from a SOTM-US talk involved finding vandalism and other garbage edits. It will be a few months before the update their maps then they expect to refresh more often.

Re: [OSM-talk] Facebook map frequency of updates?
Dave, I believe someone from the Facebook engineering team gave a presentation at the recent SotMs on this: https://2019.stateofthemap.org/sessions/3WQKAX/ & https://2019.stateofthemap.us/program/sun/keepin-it-fresh-and-good-continuous-ingestion-of-osm-data-at-facebook.html - the videos are up. If I recall correctly, Facebook started with a planet dump something like 2 years ago, then struggled to update, and have only in the last half year started catching up, but they are not caught up in all areas yet. I believe their aim was to finish catching up in 2020. Watch the videos for details, as I may be misremembering something. -Kathleen On Tue, Oct 15, 2019 at 11:13 AM Dave F via talk wrote: > Hi > > An owner of an art centre in the UK has contacted me to ask why the 10 > month old edits to the centre's building haven't appeared in Facebook. > Looking around it appears the render FB are using is more than 12 months > old.

[OSM-talk] Facebook map frequency of updates?
Hi An owner of an art centre in the UK has contacted me to ask why the 10 month old edits to the centre's building haven't appeared in Facebook. Looking around it appears the render FB are using is more than 12 months old. Is this delay standard for FB. Disappointing if it is as it shows OSM in a bad light. One of the USPs is it's frequent turn around. Is anybody in contact with FB's hierarchy or have a contact (UK maybe)?
