Here’s a print of Chinatown, San Francisco.

Instead of gargoyles, we’re using more appropriate bits of icon and text to recognize the corners.

Here you can see that someone has walked around Green Street and noted address information and a few businesses.

This is not information that you’d be able to get from a satellite image.

It’s also information that don’t really need a GPS for: the roads are already in place, but they need extra eye-level information.

Sparse data

Often don’t need detailed “GIS” maps

KML and GeoRSS are good formats

Sparse data

“Government’s record year of data loss” Daily Telegraph, UK, 2008

http://bit.ly/c1ry5s

The biggest single loss was in November when Alistair Darling, the Chancellor, revealed two CDs with personal details of 25 million child benefit claimants and their parents had gone missing in the post.

Three weeks ago Ruth Kelly, the Transport Secretary, admitted that the details of three million learner drivers had gone missing when a hard drive was lost in Iowa.

Last February it emerged 80 passports are lost in the post every month.

Last month, CDs with personal information on thousands of benefit claimants were found at the home of a former contractor to the Department of Work and Pensions.
