Create list of example Use-Cases for OSM-QA-Tiles

[jenningsanderson]

The osm-qa-tile + tile-reduce analysis stack is an efficient and simple large-scale OpenStreetMap data analysis system that doesn't rely on external APIs such as the openstretmap.org/api, overpass, or ohsome.

It's currently unknown just exactly how many OSM data quality / assessment / etc. projects use osm-qa-tiles. A list describing research / websites / etc. that use osm-qa-tiles would be helpful for others to find these tilesets / get started. Perhaps it's just too technical and abstract, so some code examples / example analyses could be helpful.

Currently I know of... (and obviously biased to my own research that uses qa-tiles):

Websites / Dashboards

• osm-analytics.org (Global, 2010 - current)
• activity.youthmappers.org (Global, 2015-current)
• OSM Activity (Global, 2007 - 2017)
• mapbox.github.io/osm-analysis-collab (Global: 2007-2016)
• mapbox.github.io/osm-analysis-dashboard (North America (2007 - 2018)
• Global Highway Tags (Global - 2017)

Quality-Assurance

• osm-lint

/cc @tyrasd, @mikelmaron, ?? ...and should such a list link to an examples page? Or is this something better put on the osm wiki?

[tyrasd]

something a "bit" outdated, but also based on osm-qa-tiles was https://github.com/tyrasd/tortuosmity, which I put together when osm-qa-tiles came out.

[tyrasd]

maybe https://github.com/lukasmartinelli/osm-qa-filter is worth a mention as well? //cc @lukasmartinelli

https://github.com/developmentseed/skynet-data also used osm-qa-tiles for generating machine learning labels, AFAIK //cc @anandthakker

https://github.com/developmentseed/label-maker as well, if I read their readme correctly //cc @drewbo
