I am collecting some facts and stats about OpenStreetMap and I am not able to find how many GPS traces users have uploaded to the OSM database. Is there some place where find it? is there some way to query the API for a current "live" info? Other related info such as number of GPS points, number of GPS contributors, etc. would be useful as well.

Really interesting figures. Thanks for the info. Maybe we can improve this answer for the community(you can edit it) by adding references for the data. Vclaw referenced the source for the number of GPS points and other stats [1]. Do you have the reference for the other stats?

There is some details about this on the wiki: Stats See the link for data stats - it doesn't seem to have the number of GPS traces, but it does have the total number of GPS points that have been uploaded (currently 2192363704). answered 22 Feb '11, 19:11 Vclaw |
