Martin Raifer has released a beautiful map of OpenStreetMap Node Density. The map provides a full general overview of OpenStreetMap's global coverage.
Each pixel on the map shows the publish of nodes at that location. When comparison areas on the map y'all quest to behave out a kind out of population normalization calculation inwards your head. For example cardinal Commonwealth of Australia appears darker on the map than around of the Australian coastline. This is to a greater extent than than probable due to the fact that urban conurbations are mainly on the coast in addition to so at that topographic point volition last to a greater extent than map features than inwards the less densely populated areas inwards the view of Australia. You likewise quest to hollo back that the map uses a Web Mercator projection in addition to so this makes it to a greater extent than hard to compare locations at dissimilar latitudes.
In Europe the Netherlands seems to accept the highest node density. Is this because the Netherlands has a huge publish of OpenStreetMap contributors or only a reflection of the relative urban density of the country? In the USA California shines out, specially cardinal San Francisco in addition to Bakersfield. My approximate is that Bakersfield inwards item must accept a pretty dedicated squad of OpenStreetMap contributors.
