The phone # is in Silver Spring, MD (next to DC). The contact address on the website (buried on a Privacy page) is a maildrop in DC.
The company was founded in 2000 "in an office just around the corner from the White House", most recent milestone listed is in 2008. Web pages are copyright 2008. Press Releases & Clippings are "coming soon". Blog is 404-ish (DB error). FB page has 73 fans, mostly un-commented wall posts noting obscure holidays & events linked to its apps. Neither FB page or website mention the Digital Nomad app. They claim realtors are their big clients. So in short, yep, they appear to be data miners that love to make any list of addresses they can get their hands on into maps and apps. Is there a CC or other license associated with the PariSOMA doc? In general the MapMuse site doesn't seem to be big on crediting data sources.
