Do you think OpenStreetMaps can be a reasonable substitute? IMHO their maps are quite accurate.

- seren 12y agoThe issue with OSM is that the information level is uneven. Dense urban center, you have every bench and bin mapped. Go into the countryside, there is not even the buildings. It might not be an issue for a taxi company that is mainly operating in urban center though.
- andygates 12y agoIt's in the taxi company's interests to improve the maps for everyone: popular routes will be refined to a T, and gaps will quickly become obvious. These days the most common mapping gap is new developments, and they're faster to appear on OSM than the commercials.
