There’s bits and pieces already there, for example you can look at TagInfo to see the diversity of tagging in use in general. Also OSM US did a ‘ census’ asking mappers to give a little more information about themselves so we know more about the demographics / diversity of the mapping population. Also I did the ‘brave mappers’ hack a little while ago showing activity of mappers in a region over time.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">However, what if we could see the diversity of mapping by country / region / city? Perhaps as a measure of % of documented and undocumented tagging used? I think that would indeed open some eyes — perhaps not specifically to gender issues, but to mapping diversity in general. That is, obviously, measuring on output — we still don’t know what the diversity of the actual population is that way — but an interesting research angle could then be to survey demographics (the input side) and look at input / output correlation.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Martijn</div></body></html>
