I like the idea of bringing back more of the contours into maps once again. The move to flat satelite and Google Maps style stuff has meant the act of being able to navigate based on most efficient effort (e.g across contours not just A to B) is rapidly getting lost.

- maxerickson 13y agoThis route planner shows elevation profiles: https://www.komoot.de/plan https://www.komoot.de/plan I'm not sure how much it takes the elevations into account during the planning.
- Doctor_Fegg 13y agoI've recently built http://cycle.travel/map http://cycle.travel/map which does indeed take elevation into account when planning a route.
- Ighart 13y agoBased on Seznam's revenue I expect its market cap to be around $1bn., Google wouldn't get much from such deal. The technology is nice, but nothing new and as far as I know Seznam's reach is around 4—5M people (out of 7M internet users in Czech Republic), so fairly small market. — Also, I doubt Ivo (founder) would sell it. Yet it's super awesome to see Seznam's quality of delivery to local market.
