    It reaaaaaaally depends on how active people are in the area

    You can have one city with every pavement stone mapped and the town over just be “yup, there’s a street here”

      I swear this thing isn’t as popular here in south east asia but somehow someone manage to mark every single road bump in the area near my workplace.

      UK also has ordnance survey maps that are just the best maps. Found out our local library has a shit load of them too. But it probably helps OSM a lot more too if you used them as a source.

        Lots of communities use official mappings, actually. But some places put them under a license that can’t be used for OSM

        Germany had a case somewhat recently where a bunch of stuff had to be reverted, because the licence wasn’t clear enough
