Cool. In July, ESRI and Google teamed up to lock down road closure data on their “community maps” program. The community appears to be governments feeding their data to Google and ESRI who then look after it for us, entirely for our benefit.

I really think there needs to be an effort to get drivers to use real community software and provide this data as a public good.
