xkcd #2977: Three Kinds of Research
alt text:
The secret fourth kind is ‘we applied a standard theory to their map of every tree and got some suspicious results.’
I feel like https://xkcd.com/2102/ is sort-of about OSM too.
And here is the chart to follow the progress:
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/natural=tree#chronology
We should see a saturation arround 3 trillion trees. (1)
You can easily help achivieving this goal by reworking natural=tree_row and adding single natural=tree into natural=wood areas :) I know, some say this is discouraged, but we really need to map EVERY TREE!
This is literally me.
The person to the right?
A major portion of my professional career has been occupied by the task of “get me a map of every tree”
