Mike Collinson – OSM Foundation
• Open Street Map does not exist– Not a formal entity– No-one to give money or call (except Steve Coast)
• Open Street Map Foundation exists– Manages data license– Organises SOTM– Funding operations, admin stuff– Does not control OSM
Steve Coast - Keynote
• SOTM Comments – Organisation& Sponsors• OSM is growing [image]• US coverage “100%” but buggy due to Tiger• Edit wars – Northern Cyprus• API 0.6 – More versioning support• New license almost ready• Cloudmade – APIs, Custom tiles, Isle of Man
Ed Parsons (Google) - MapMaker
• Google (like Multimap) gets data from many providers.
• MapMaker was created to allow them to collect data where data was not available.
• All aerial imagery is licensed, not owned, derivation rights can’t be shared with OSM.
• Restrictive License – Future proofing
