Article about OSM Ireland I had read Richards paper to the SotM in 2013 and found it interesting, nice to read it again. If not too much trouble Richard could you please issue a statistical update paragraph, also for the web page, just of the lines below from your article. It would be of interest to many and a nice marker at the end of 2015.
"...So far, the community has mapped 4,500 of the island’s 62,000 townlands, so there is still quite some way to go. ...The number of objects (nodes, ways and relations in OpenStreetMap terminology) in the Ireland dataset grew by 25% in the first 6 months of 2013 alone, and the length of road in the dataset, at 126,000km in August 2013 ...The Irish dataset currently contains over 8.2 million objects, including 86,985 houses, 15,850 trees, 2,657 pubs and 2 grit bins ... Over 2,000 people have made edits to the map in Ireland (strictly speaking, there are 2,045 OSM user accounts which are the ‘last modifier’ of an object within the island of Ireland). Of these just 30 people, or 1.5%, are responsible for 80% of the edits" Thank you On 24 December 2015 at 12:00, <talk-ie-requ...@openstreetmap.org> wrote: > Send Talk-ie mailing list submissions to > talk-ie@openstreetmap.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > talk-ie-requ...@openstreetmap.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > talk-ie-ow...@openstreetmap.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Talk-ie digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
