    This doesn’t compensate at all for mapping coverage, which makes it really bad data.

      From what little I know of research projects data is never ever complete enough. Or recent enough. Or analysed enough.

      OSM is nice because it’s open source but as a mapper I agree it’s far from complete.

      You’re right. It woudl be better to focus on a smaller area with good data instead of a huge area with bad data. Shit in - shit out

    Why do you share it?

    It looks overengineered to me.

    It puts the name of the author above the methodology and the methodology doesn’t even include how it is measured.

      Seems fine to me. The author mentioned is in reference to the origin of the name, as an explanation for why it would be called that and what it is measuring. It’s not the author of the website or this tool.

        H1: Methodology H2: Overview H3: Project/Author H2: Process H2: Conceptual Framework H2: Data Sources H2: Place Type Taxonomy H2: Scoring Methodology

        And nowhere the methodology is explained. The term Methodology is used in the 6th second level header. But it doesn’t describe what they do
