It's been three months since I last tried to measure road lengths on OSM against the Department for Transport statistics, and I thought there might be some interest in how things are progressing. At the moment this has only been updated where I already have decent admin boundaries from OSM. In

Thanks to both Andrew (wynndale) and Guy Colling for their comments on the analysis of OSM coverage. There has certainly been a noticeable improvement to Cornwall, and I am glad that I could help to highlight it. On the situation in Ireland, I am only transferring GB content to my database at t

A few months ago I compared the length of roads on the OSM database against the figures quoted by the Department for transport, and posted the results here. I've now updated the figures using the OSM database extract at the end of 2009. The resulting map is here - http://www.reedhome.org.u

I have done some preliminary measures of OSM coverage for Scotland and Wales based on using NUTS-3 regional boundaries as common ground to compare DfT figures for the length of roads in a local authority against the length of roads in OSM. NUTS-3 is the basis for EU regional statistics, and the
