[OSM-Science] Calculating a global SDG using OpenStreetMap

[joost schouppe]

Thanks for sharing Ross. Absolutely welcome here.

I was wondering if there's any analysis of the ReCAP country-specific data
compared to OSM that leads to the conclusion the ReCAP data is better? Is
this data that could potentially help OSM?

On the scale of your analysis it would probably not make much difference,
but you seem to be excluding certain highway=* values. It is safer to work
with a list if inclusions instead. For example, your dataset might include
raceway, construction, platform or corridor. Maybe those are already
excluded in the Mapbox QA tiles, I don't know.
