<br>articles. In discussion with a friend, we recently had the idea of<br>integrating the data into a racing game so that you can race around<br>actual streets. There are a panoply of potential uses for the OSM data,<br>
not all of which are going to want just the signpost language or name.<br><br></blockquote></div><br>Cool, I started thinking about a maze game with an 'import from OSM' feature of some sort.<br><br>And yeah I agree that OSM isn't just a navigational aid. I really like OSM because you can access the data and do what you like with it, and that doesn't just mean make navigational aids for different users.
