Notícia de hoje no The Guardian sobre a importância do OpenStreetMap: http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/jan/14/why-the-world-needs-openstreetmap
Tem uma curiosa menção à questão de "determina que certo lugar é seguro ou inseguro" referindo-se a critérios obscuros adotados pelas companhias (lembro que andamos discutindo sobre coisas parecidas e tentando chegar a um consenso na lista talk-br). Outros trechos notáveis: "Lastly, these map providers have an incentive to collect information about you in ways that you may not agree with. Both Google and Apple collect your location information when you use their services." "In terms of map content, OpenStreetMap is both neutral and transparent. OpenStreetMap is a wiki-like map that anyone in the world can edit. If a store is missing from the map, it can be added in by a store owner or even a customer." -- Fernando Trebien +55 (51) 9962-5409 "The speed of computer chips doubles every 18 months." (Moore's law) "The speed of software halves every 18 months."
