Who maps every day (without fail)? | Updated list here! |

someone should praise me | Good job! 😀😀😀😀😀 |

Vector Tile File Formats | The piece I was missing is that a single range request can ask for multiple non-adjacent ranges, so you can request an arbitrary number of non-sequential tiles in a single request. Thanks for the explanation. |

Vector Tile File Formats | I saw Brandon’s presentation on pmtiles at SOTM US in Richmond but didn’t really grok the significance. I now understand better what many of the advantages are, but I don’t know enough about cloud services to understand the big reduction in cost. Is it because AWS charges based on number of files so by putting everything in a single file (and use range requests) you can hack the usage fees? I’d really appreciate a more thorough explanation. |

Check if POI website is active | So nice to see the fluent use of bash and the unix toolchain for this. It feels like it’s a dying art. There is a QA tool (I unfortunately don’t recall which one) that does something similar, but also ensures that the POI name appears somewhere on the first page of the site. With a slightly longer awk script you could do the same. |

An Essay I Wrote For My Town's Local Newsletter | Very nice! |

Simple demo app that analyses OSM changeset data (and why modern file formats are cool) | You can also read the changeset data already hosted on AWS rather than uploading it yourself: osm.org/user/Jennings%20Anderson/diary/394762 |

Who maps every day (without fail)? | @Aurimas Fišeras You’re right, and your streak is incredible! Table is updated with improved data. |

The worst night club for a durty take away after chucking out time: Distance to the nearest fast food place for every nightclub | Lots of locales have food carts that never get mapped since they’re not permanent structures, but are still relatively permanent establishments. |

2022 Taiwan Street-view Expedition Series: Recaps on the 2nd Street-view Expedition | Lorry driver joke is inappropriate (and not in the TW version). |

Google Summer of Code 2022 | If anyone else is curious about the map access statistics referenced here, it’s the number of times each map tile has been served by the tile server: https://planet.openstreetmap.org/tile_logs/ |
