The net nodes created (created - deleted) would be a good indicator.

Thank you for your comments, 2013/7/26 Peter Wendorff : > 1) you count objects in Y from mappers coming from X and use absolute > numbers for the color indication.

I agree completely. The current map is a "first shot". There could be several ponderations : * according to the number of mappers in the selected country * according to the total number of nodes in the target countries * probably others too I will think about that and try to come back with another visualization. > 2) could you change the website code in a way that the map fits into the > screen? it get's ugly when the map is bigger than your screen, and > that's the case here even at my usual notebook (not to mention phones > etc.).

Re: [OSM-talk] Mapping cooperation between countries in OSM
That's pretty cool. Probably two small ideas to keep in mind: 1) you count objects in Y from mappers coming from X and use absolute numbers for the color indication. You should IMHO take the number of mappers into account, too. e.g. Germany with a big number of mappers produces a rather "dark" map, whereas e.g. the countries in middle america all produce a very light map. 2) could you change the website code in a way that the map fits into the screen? it get's ugly when the map is bigger than your screen, and that's the case here even at my usual notebook (not to mention phones etc.). Sizes relative to the viewport might help. regards Peter Am 25.07.2013 11:47, schrieb Frédéric Bonifas: > Hi, > > For a long time I have wanted to know where people from a given > country also contribute in OpenStreetMap. > I have analyzed all the nodes in the OSM Planet from the 15th June > 2013 and I came up with this map : > http://fredericbonifas.github.io/OSM-cooperation/ > > One identified bias is that each contributor is assigned the country > where he has contributed the most as his main country.

Re: [OSM-talk] Mapping cooperation between countries in OSM
Pretty cool. Looks like people are mostly contributing to neighboring countries and also to popular holiday destinations :-) I can confirm this as I live on Polish/Czech border and often map in Czech Republic.
