[OSM-talk] Visualizing mapping history of an area

Are there any tools available to make an animation of the mapping progress
of an area over a few months, like the party render[1]? This is to showcase
the work of college students from a tribal area in India where OSM was
introduced as a lab activity.

The area of interest is a small town called Talasari, north of Mumbai [2].
The students had very low experience with computers and most had to start
from creating email ids. The area was blank a couple of months ago, so it
will be interesting to see how the mapping progressed over time. Any
resources to do this will be appreciated, since I could not find anything
on the wiki except proposals[3].
