[OSM-talk] Facebook map frequency of updates?

[Kathleen Lu]

Dave, I believe someone from the Facebook engineering team gave a
presentation at the recent SotMs on this:
https://2019.stateofthemap.org/sessions/3WQKAX/ &
https://2019.stateofthemap.us/program/sun/keepin-it-fresh-and-good-continuous-ingestion-of-osm-data-at-facebook.html
- the videos are up.
If I recall correctly, Facebook started with a planet dump something like 2
years ago, then struggled to update, and have only in the last half year
started catching up, but they are not caught up in all areas yet. I believe
their aim was to finish catching up in 2020. Watch the videos for details,
as I may be misremembering something.
