Well, the Haiti earthquake in 2010 marked the start of what HOTOSM do and since then they seem to steadily improve maps where disasters are likely to strike or where needed for current humanitarian efforts (e.g. there was a project on improving road coverage prior to distribution of COVID-19 vaccines in South Sudan a year ago or so).
