[OSM-talk] OSM registrations by County

[Gregory Williams]

Steve,

I hope it's not too late to reply for your friend's article deadline. 
I've just downloaded the latest Kent extract from Geofabrik and counted 
the unique UID values in it. I get exactly 1500. Clearly some mappers 
will have contributed just one or two features and others will be much 
more active. Also, if a mapper's contributions got entirely wiped out 
by somebody else updating or deleting them then they won't show up in 
the figure.

I'm one of the main mappers in East Kent. Perhaps this graphic of 
mapping in East Kent (albeit a few years old) would be useful:

Cheers,

Gregory
