Good morning,
As an aside, I've heard at a conference that the amount of data in the
OpenStreetMap database per capita in a country is proportional to the
per capita income [1] of the country.
I wonder if there is an inverse relationship. For example, if we take a
country and map it exhaustively and extremely well, increasing by this
the amount of the OSM data for it. Will it increase the per capita income?
I cannot be sure, but in principle in could, as a good readily available
map favors economic activity. And if it were the case, the OSM mapping
could be taught to millions of pupils and students as part of curriculum.
Best regards,
Oleksiy (Alex-7 @ OSM)

Hi,
In HOT mailing list I was advised to bring a part of a thing we did to
wider audience :)
We've correlated global population datasets with plain OpenStreetMap
objects count. The main use case is to quickly determine how much is
there to map in case of natural disaster in a smaller region, but the
map itself is global - it's interesting to see what's around you and
find the spots to map next, even outside of the disaster.
