Abstract

These slides were presented at State of the Map 2017 conference in Aizu-Wakamatsu, Japan (http://2017.stateofthemap.org). They aim to provide an overview on some current research trends on OpenStreetMap (OSM), focusing in particular on three research works I have carried out over the last few years: 1) an automated procedure for quality assessment of OSM road networks; 2) an analysis of OSM tagging patterns; and 3) the use of OSM to generate Land Use/Land Cover maps.
