Thats true, for sure it can't be done during GSoC. It is more or less a

Hi Folks,
A student has contacted me about a potential Google Summer of Code proposal
to provide integration between OSM and Waze http://www.waze.com (

).
I had never heard of Waze before, but it seems to be a combination

Hello Graham,
AFAIK Waze wants to build their own map of the world and sees OSM as
competition. Waze has already imported TIGER, which is PD and I don't
think Waze will be a viable concept without TIGER. SteveC reviewed
their Iphone app on his blog.
There is however scope for building our own
Hello
I have proposed a student project called Incorporation of Traffic
Information and OpenStreetMap data[1] , which has similar goals like
the integration of waze. But deals more with the server part of the
application and will be (of course) as open as openstreetmap is.

Hey Peter
That looks very interesting. I'm actually halfway through a proposal for the
same thing (for someone else to do) but you have got it all covered.
The only thing I think you have missed is thinking about the temporal aspect
of your data. For instance, I want a database that I can tell

it would be awesome to have a PND software base that fed back to OSM like waze

Hi,
There have been a few good points raised while I have been away.
I had not thought of producing a live traffic info service, but I can see it
is possible. Just needs some careful up front design.
The other is that the Waze client is actually a very nice little application

Sorry, phone keeps pressing wrong buttons for me, I may give up soon... but
I think given good client software this could be a valuable project. At the
very least, for any support for temporal restrictions we need something like
this, and OpenSatNav would be able to make good use of this,
