The FOAM Map is being actively updated and maintained by Cartographers. Over 600 cartographers have added more than 8,000 points to the map. The FOAM team used two techniques to boost early activity and achieve these figures:

The structure of the token sale, which requires participants to add at least ten points each to unlock their tokens.

Using NFTs as rewards in special events like the Holiday Treasure Hunt and New Lab Event.

FOAM Map Leaderboard

The FOAM Map Leaderboard recognizes Cartographers based on their contributions to the map. The proposal for a leaderboard came from FOAM community member cryptozen, who listed it first in a list of ideas about “external non-economic incentives.”

Essentially, the suggestion was to use “gamification” elements which are features — a leaderboard in this case — borrowed from games and applied to other contexts. Leaderboards are motivating for those who want to see themselves at the top of the list (and provide a nice set of data for us to look through!).
