But the database directive does not extend protection to each and every database; there has to be "substantial investment" in obtaining, verifying or presenting the contents. Now while I can just about see the substantial investment in getting out on a rainy day and collecting 50 road geometries with your GPS, there can be absolutely no doubt that entering the name of the pub around the corner will never come under "substantial investment"...
