What's cooking at Mapbox this week

Posted by kepta on 25 March 2017 in English.

As a part of our data transparency efforts at Mapbox. We created osm-edit-report which helps anyone visualize our teams contribution to OSM.

Just to give a measure, the data team added 0.3 Million objects, 0.2 Million tags, and 3 thousand changesets last week.

This is how the numbers look:

objects-created

Since this data is so huge to grasp at one go, we also have filters which help trim down data and focus on a particular group.

  • Filter by users.

Filter-user

  • Filter by tags

filter-tags

  • Filter by BBox

filter-bbox

The user table showcases all edits made by each user over the course of a week. The saturated blue boxes help emphasize huge edits and the chevrons compare today’s edits with the weekly average. table

Overall this tool helps us benchmark our mapping efforts and visualize out priority areas. Please don’t forget to share your views on how to make our mapping efforts more transparent.
