HI Nama, In my experience people often somehow don't upload data. How why this happens I don't know. This has happened everywhere I've worked. It is important to actually watch people upload and make sure they aren't having any issues. I would say the stats on the site are actually probably right. You can run your own statics using PostGIS if you wanted to compare but it is more complicated than just going to a site obviously.
I would suggest emailing the site directly. Also you'll get better responses to your query on the osm-talk list, since it is a regular site used by the greater OSM community. -Kate On Mon, Jan 21, 2013 at 11:12 AM, Nama Budhathoki <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Kate, > > It is based on face-to-face conversation among the mappers in one of the > mapping parties.
