The data is publicly observable, so I don't see how they can claim any  
copyright upon it.

If you're drawing a map & you mark a hill upon it, the farmer who owns  
the hill surely cannot take action against you. (Assume you do not set  
foot upon the property, but estimate location & height of the peak by  
observation & triangulation from other nearby points of known height &  
public accessibility).

I don't see that it could be covered by a user agreement, because cell  
towers advertise their presence to users of other networks.

What legal issues do YOU foresee, in which jurisdictions?

Stroller.
