Makes sense to me. I mean, I'd be trying to sell google data of remote locations, I could draw some random stuff and say: "hey we're 90% complete!" (cheap and almost risk-free) or I could actually survey the area: not as cheap. Or I could say I don't have the data (cheap but it hurts my ability to sell them). I almost forgot a fourth possibility though. The company bought some official data. Guess who's got a lazy state worker on their hands? Brazilian authorities! :) Yann _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
