OSM In Realtime is a simple visualization of the changes made to OpenStreetMap as they happen.

What Is OpenStreetMap?

OSM is a worldwide map created and edited by volunteers. It aims to be a free, high quality data source that can be used in new and creative ways. You can join! Mapping is a lot of fun.

How It Works

OSM In Realtime downloads the minutely changeset feed provided by OpenStreetMap and shows the changesets on the map. It isn't really intended for any useful mapping purpose. I just thought it would be a cool visualization.
