I was alerted to a new tool that allows easy comparison of
OpenStreetMap and other web maps with a nice little slider bar. See for
yourselves here.

Most importantly it lets me see how with just one dedicated local
mapper, me, OSM can maintain higher quality mapping than its commercial
rivals. It also makes me wonder when we will start seeing Local
Authorities and the third sector get involved in sponsoring hyperlocal
mapping. It makes sense to fund a few local mappers to keep map data
up-to-date and provide a very low cost mapping alternative for local
use.
