Sarah's numbers come from Nominatim and the statistics for France and are based on most of the imported buildings not having other tags added to them. Because I have a pgsnapshot database at home I can do a more detailed analysis to evaluate what percentage of cadastre buildings have been touched since they were uploaded, looking at any change, even the addition or deletion of nodes. There are 28.7 million building=* ways with one of the top 5 cadastre source values on http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/source#values. Of these 17.9 million are version=1. 62.2% of cadastre building ways are never touched again by any mapper. Sarah is correct and the majority of imported buildings are never touched. Aside: Because 18% of the ways in the database are from the French cadastre generating these stats requires a sequential scan of the ways table and really makes me with I had an array of SSDs. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
