How often are the tiles updated? It would be really useful if the analysis map showed what date the tiles are from (well the data they are using) as I have put a number of changes in and while the statistics have changed the tiles remain the same, I'm guessing it's every few days?
However it's a really nifty tool - knocking in a number of missing roads round the borough (some rural areas are brilliantly mapped, some haven't been touched since the NPE stuff went in ( with all the corrections that needs I'm so tempted just to blow everything away and start again in places) and adding a load more to my check list*. I've also been spotting some "nice" things to map (areas with lots of paths, buildings, and sports fields) that are devoid of GPS traces (so nothing to align Bing too) that others might like to pick up (i'm unlike to visit anywhere near Charnwood boundary for instance) and for those nearer to home it gives me something to aim at. * Does anyone have an opinion on using Open Street Bugs for this - been correcting a few obvious typos (mainly in places I did from Streetview/surveys - my spelling sucks) but there are lots of questions remaining (e.g. does the road to Tithby really have two names - i.e. Tithby Road and Tythby Road - or have the OS got some typo's/copyright traps in Locator and Streetview?) - I've been adding to Open Street Bugs for two reasons, it highlights to someone else not using the OSM Analysis that it needs checking; and it also shows up in OSMAnd so when I'm out on the bike I can pick up something nearby.
