In years past, we got details on the center, orientation, width and names of streets, and some core infastructure like airport, toilets, burn barrels .. pretty early, from the DPW. From that, we calculated the street networks, etc, and not a problem to put on OSM. The other big data set is from artery, the location of art works ... which does change on the playa from the plans ...
but usually no issue to publish as soon as available. The tricky data set is theme camp sites, which is usually published as both coordinates, and as a image showing the precise layout of each camp ... and that has been traced into OSM (there's definitely a better way, see Jeff's comment about us no longer being involved ;). This camp data is embargoed until gates open, as everyone gets pissy about their camp placement, and makes it all more tricky to manage on OSM.</span><br>
