    In April, the #OpenHistoricalMap community added 137,660 dated elements, 106,732 buildings, and 37,220¼ railroad miles. The average age of a dated element fell by almost 2 years, and the average year shifted 17 months later. All this with the help of 36 new contributors – welcome! https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenHistoricalMap/Statistics
