Strange OSM Sighting

於 2016年九月 3日 由 mtcEnglish發表。

Strange occurrence happened today. While waiting for the shops to open, I recorded the names of the stores in this strip mall. One office appeared to be a computer themed consulting firm, with GPS systems in their window. When I researched the company website, I found they specialized in GPS systems for sports, and they used openstreetmap in their sport device solution! This was a pleasant coincidence, but how odd that they had not even entered their own office into OSM. I will not link to them in this post, in case the situation makes them appear poorly, but you could find them in my edit history easily enough. Good seeing people using OSM data in a variety of ways. I think these people are focused on real-time data from their sensors, but perhaps not very interested in the completeness of the street maps.

I’ve stumbled across a number of companies using OSM data. I too assumed that their employees would have added the business and maybe some other surrounding things to the map, but that’s often not the case.
