<p>Most of the time such much applauded changes in policy work
mainly for the big guys (aka the goog, here and tomtom), by
lowering the costs to have similar level of non-automotive related
detail as the national mapping agencies and OSM. I don't quite see
and haven't seen in other countries, even in theory, how "small
businesses" profit from this at all.</p>

<div>Before getting overly excited, take a look at the (poorly
attributed) sample 1km sq in Exeter. Volume of data is very
large with (just) buildings, road & pavement edges,
property boundaries etc. Ask what will it improve in OSM other
than precision: I suspect negligible impact on most routing
applications (as OSM uses a centre-line model, which AFAIK is
in the TIN layer of MM), mapping footpaths. On the (plus?)
side lots of very detailed buildings (but not necessarily
changes from extensions), property outlines (and perhaps this
will change the status of the LR Inspire data). <br>

<div>For me the single most valuable aspect will not be MM data
at all, but the removal of licence doubts/issues about other
datasets: notably those of Natural England, SNH and NRW, but
also various PRoW data collected by Barry Cornelius.</div>
