There is an article in Forbes about the increasing lengths data providers are going to to collect data for mapping.

He says that if tens of thousands of users travel a road without complaining, then Tele Atlas can be fairly certain that its map of the road is correct." Not sure if that's strictly true, given the quality of some of there maps, but anyway Regards Steve
