Hey i uploaded a GPS track showing the road network in a small part of Enugu State in Nigeria but a day later the track had not been updated on osm. My question is, will the update be done and if so how long will it take?
Just uploading GPX tracks to the OSM server does not create any way that appears later on the map.
Your GPX tracks you have uploaded are listet here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/innocensia/traces
and your edits you made to the map element database (The core of OSM) are here:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/innocensia/edits
So are there any edits you made that do not appear on the map?
If yes, tell us the changeset number so that we can investigate.
You can also display elements that are already in the main database but not rendered yet via the http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Data_layer
Thank you very much, those links gave me clarity on a lot of issues.
