How does open street map data get created and are there existing |
16 |
open source embedded boards one can buy, install in a car and help |
17 |
extend/enhance the data collected? Or, roll your own? |

It seem they already have the land methodologies developed, what |
20 |
about near-shore marine? Any open source software efforts for that |
21 |
yet? |

wilderness, but, I did not save the links..... |
