Hi , Anyone glancing at the image published by The Guardian data [1] could say its a OpenStreet Map . But there was no mention of that . I went forward and read the article in Floating sheep [2] which also doesn't mention anything about the maps being based / are OpenStreet Map . Ironic is the fact that the author has taken pain to give citations/ references to Geographical Research papers but missed even a lil bit of info on where the maps are from .
Sad to say that its coming from a research institute which studies the "web" on issues like privacy ,copyright etc . 1. http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/datablog/gallery/2013/feb/14/africa-tweets-mapped 2 . http://www.floatingsheep.org/2013/02/the-urban-geographies-of-tweets-in.html PS : I do realise that it[2] isnt an institute blog/press .
