interesting stuff

this has got me thinking - openstreetmap is progressing as a nice
alternative to google maps and so on, but is there an open-source
equivalent for the photography part of google maps/earth? something
working in a similar way to osm, using photos taken by anybody, with a
UAV or any airborne vehicle, and licensed under GNU FDL? this sort of
technology is getting cheaper and cheaper, it's well within the price
range of common people now
