Hey, Well those data are frequently the foundation of large tools or analysis. for example here in Montréal, some people want to include trees data (that were also released recently) to improve some quality of life indexes. Road center lines and parcel data can be used in a lot of situations. For example for trip planners. It can allow you to avoid using some google tools, like the geocoder.
