As I remember it from previous discussions, wifi locations are somewhat transient for OSM. Cell tower locations are likely from government databases are they not? Given that this would be a 'complete' dataset from another source, why duplicate (and eventually synchronize) it with OSM, when it should be possible to display them together in a mash up? Mind you, combining towers and frequencies with terrain and building outlines would make a fun project for estimating propagation. ;-) _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
