When Michal Migurski started Walking Papers, it was a test for an unvonventional process of bringing in more detail on pedestrian level. We had it here, some days ago.
Now and after a first real-life trial, results keep dropping in, including "one German, collecting house numbers" - surprise!
(...) the technology worked and we got legitimately street-level data from enthusiastic participants
As the first million is said to be the easiest, it'll be highly relevant to see how this will scale. Germany alone has around 20 million house numbers.
No bashing at all - just arithmetics.
Big numbers are one reason why it took Navteq some 15 years to map Germany (replace "Germany" by any other country.)
