Re: [OSM-talk] Standard OSM map refreshing

2013-04-22 Thread Severin MENARD
Hi,

Leading the HOT
Activationhttp://hot.openstreetmap.org/updates/2013-04-10_hot_activation_in_central_african_republic
for
the Central African
Republichttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Central_African_Republic,
I have edited data all over the country since. Focusing on the primary road
network, I figured out the update of Standard OSM map are quite different
between the zoom scales. Eg with this small
cityhttp://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=6.4835lon=17.4479zoom=14layers=M.
Z10, 13 and 14 have already the changes made on April 14th while z11, 12,
15,16, 17 not yet. Is there a fixed worldwide rule for this or is it
continent/country/area based? I (quickly) looked for a page for this but
did not find it, is there an official information about this?

Sincerely,

Severin http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Severin.menard

The standard map on openstreetmap.org usually updates within a few 
minutes for most zoom levels, but may take longer if the servers are busy.
If its not updating for you after a few hours or days, you might be 
looking a cached copy in your browser. Depends on your browser, but 
pressing Ctrl+F5 or Shift+F5 should force a refresh, clearing the cache.


Note that other OSM based maps may take much longer to update, eg the 
cycle map sometimes takes a few weeks.
