@luci @crashglasshouses@kolektiva.social Not on OSM anyway, OSM explicitly disallows imports from proprietary sources like Google Maps for copyright reasons :/
(Whether it's *illegal* is debatable, but OSM doesn't want to take the risk)

@joepie91 @crashglasshouses ah fair
maybe like, just an extractor that you run personally and then dump google maps?
and then people just distribute databases because that’s also how you’re meant to obtain legal game roms
@luci @crashglasshouses@kolektiva.social Totally possible to maintain this as a separate 'overlay' yeah, depending on jurisdiction you may even be able to host it legally
@joepie91 @crashglasshouses could there be a project that sucks the data out of google maps or is that very illegal
