I wonder whether there will be a sort of 3d model version of openstreetmap one day. Especially with drones, it would be relatively easy for individuals to start recording the world in 3d.
There are all sorts of cool parishes one could do with that (too bad Google didn't seem to have an API for their 3d map anymore).
- gottlos 9y agohttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/F4_Map http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/F4_Map take a look at the city of geelong, victoria, Australia - they collected lidar data and opened it up, so got imported. Many users are doing the same. We are a long way from Google maps 3D coverage; but is all open data. In Australia also have addresses datasets as open ("GNAF"), and many industries tie back to that to do variius levels of building information modeling (BIM). Feels like in 10-20 years those movies where they pull up the blueprints to plan a heist will be a reality.
