Hallo all,

I’d like to share a link to an OSM diary entry where I summarise part
of a HOT study I did earlier this year.

I was interested in understanding how first-time contributors engage
with HOT: how many hours of work do they contribute in the first days,
and how long do they keep contributing to HOT once they joined? I’m
comparing three initiatives: mapping for typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda in Nov
2013, the Ebola response throughout 2014, and initial months of
Missing Maps after November 2014.

The post with detailed results is here:

And here’s some background on my work:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/dekstop/diary/35169

Will keep posting more of these diary entries as the year progresses,
and will make sure to share bigger findings here and on Twitter.

Feedback and suggestions are appreciated, here or in the comments!

m.
