openstreetmaps is much faster for that kind of things :) not unlike wikipedia is much faster at updating than a normal encyclopedia, or something like that.

- tonfa 14y agoI've been wondering, how long does it take for a change to go from an edit in OSM, to being live in a routing app using OSM data? (If such an app exists) Editing something is usually fast, having it percolate to all users of the data is much longer (for GMaps, but I expect it's similar for OSM).
- Heliosmaster 14y agoit depends: some tiles are updated very frequently for visualization. My experience is that it is no more than a hour or so to see the changes live. Therefore if somebody pulls from OSM, it will get the new version.
