Why Openstreetmap? 3. Quote 1

  • If you dont make [lower-resolution mapping data] publicly available, there will be people with their cars and GPS devices, driving around with their laptops .. They will be cataloguing every lane, and enjoying it, driving 44s behind your farm at the dead of night. There will, if necessary, be a grass-roots remapping.

  • You could have a community capability where you took the GPS data of people driving around and started to see, oh, theres a new road that we dont have, a new route .. And so that data eventually should just come from the community with the right software infrastructure.

Folksonomy You decide what to tag things. Democratic, bottom up i.e. how do you tag an orchard? (a wood for growing apples) Tagging rules match reality, not if it can be displayed bythe rendering rules on the maphttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Map_features 17. 18. 19. 20. 21.
