Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft are contributing to OpenStreetMap
The Open Data Institute (ODI) recently outlined how large multinationals like Apple, Facebook, and Microsoft are collaborating through OpenStreetMap to build an openly-licensed map of the world.
It stated that Microsoft was among the first to release satellite imagery and that the images are now integrated into the default editor. Microsoft also has a community of mappers contributing to OpenStreetMap in Australia.
