With the new release, we have integrated H3 hexagon grids for a more accurate, multi-resolution view of where mapping happens within countries.
Another feature is Power Grid Mapping to track contributions related to electrical infrastructure, which is relevant for humanitarian mapping and development planning.

ohsome-planet: Export OSM data and its history to GeoParquet: The GIScience Research Group at Heidelberg University and HeiGIT have released version 1.0.0 of #ohsome-planet, a tool for #cloudnative access to #OpenStreetMap (#OSM) data using the #GeoParquet format. Originally developed as an internal tool, it...

🎉❗ We have just released 𝗼𝗵𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲-𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗲𝘁, a new software library on GitHub that facilitates the transformation of raw OpenStreetMap history data into the 𝗚𝗲𝗼𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘁 format, making it more accessible and efficient for spatial data analysis.
With ohsome-planet, we make a big step toward the development of 𝗼𝗵𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝟮.𝟬.

We have recently expanded the #ohsome Quality API and its dashboard, introducing a new indicator to assess attribute completeness in #OpenStreetMap.

We now add new options to the Attribute Completeness Indicator:
▫️ Multi-Attribute Queries: Check completeness for multiple attributes at once.
▫️ Custom Attribute Filters: define key-value combos with “and” / “or” logic.

🗺️📊 Curious about the impact of OpenStreetMap usage?

We selected some metrics on #ohsome tools and the impact of #OpenStreetMap (#OSM) in 2024.
From building data coverage to the number of API requests, these figures showcase the scale of OSM use and the analytics capabilities of ohsome.

ℹ️ With the ohsome dashboard, users can analyze OSM’s full-history data without programming skills.

#30DayMapChallenge Day 20:

🛣️ How up-to-date is road data in #OpenStreetMap?

This map shows the recency (“currentness”) of edits to #OSM road data in urban centers around the world.

Currentness is a crucial factor in determining data quality. Higher values suggest more up-to-date areas, while lower values may indicate less reliable information.

The map was created using the #ohsome quality API (OQAPI): https://dashboard.ohsome.org/#backend=oqtApi&topic=roads&indicators=currentness

#30DayMapChallenge Day 18:

🏙️ Today´s map shows where building stock is located worldwide. It highlights a particularly high building density in East and Southeast Asia.

Benjamin Herfort & al. created this map and compared it with building data in #OpenStreetMap using #ohsome (https://dashboard.ohsome.org/). They analyzed building data completeness for 13,189 urban areas in #OSM, proposing solutions for the data gaps.

📊With tools that rely on #opensource #data, data quality is a vital factor!

🔎In case of the #GEEST, a tool developed by a workgroup of @worldbank, we used the #ohsome quality API (oqapi) to test if #osm and #mapillary data suit the GEEST methodology:
