My understanding is that MapQuest Open uses OSM data only, however, my edits in OSM from about 72 hours ago are still not seen in MapQuest Open. Does anyone know how long it takes until my updates will it make into MapQuest Open? |

My edit from about 4 days ago shows up in MapQuest Open already (high zoom levels). Keep in mind that …
After my edits in OSM I have forced a re-render of a tile by loading just the tile image and then appending /dirty to the URL and also cleared browser cache when requesting open MapQuest. Since my edits are for a remote location in Northern Canada it might be that this region gets not frequently updated?

@bardu55: everything could be. MapQuest is a completely separate company, I do not know their tile updating policy. Could you please mention a link to one of your edits/location?

I cannot see your edits reflected in the MapQuest tiles, too. I would just wait more. Sorry, I do not know their schedule and did not find it by a quick search. It could be possible that you need to wait up to a month, and I was just lucky to edit right before an update cycle (for my region). I would expect about a week delay. btw: the /dirty and /status seems to not work for the MapQuest tiles (at least there is no adequate response like there is for osm.org tiles).

If I go to http://open.mapquest.ca and search for "carcross, yt, canada" and zoom in my edits are not shown as you have confirmed. The funny thing is if I click on "EDIT" potlatch opens in a new tab with my edits shown an the map.

@bardu55: this is as expected and because the editor accesses the raw data – which is updated as soon as you upload/save an edit.

FWIW: my edit from 16 minutes ago (in Germany) is showing up already on the "MapQuest Open" tiles. Quite fast! Your edits at Carcross are still not shown. :-( But there is not really anything we can do. You can try to contact Mapquest and ask what is going on there or if it could be made updating faster in Canada …
