Inspired by @pnorman’s animation, here’s a year of daily OpenStreetMap tile traffic. One frame per UTC day, from the start of September 2022 through end of August 2023. It’s from the public log aggregates, so some low-traffic tiles are left out for (I assume) efficiency and privacy.

@vruba What did you use and what settings to encode the video? That's the problem I've always had, I can't find a good ffmpeg command line to encode it.

Are you doing color based on log(requests) or scaling a different way?

@pnorman This seemed to work acceptably: ffmpeg -r 15 -f image2 -pattern_type glob -i "png10/*.png" -vcodec libx264 -tune grain -crf 15 -pix_fmt yuv420p -movflags +faststart osm.mp4

And the value scaling is basically log8, entirely ad-hoc.
