A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

If you want a bunch of data no one else has, you’re entitled to charge for it. From looking at their site, they’re a historical/statistical map provider which is data that you won’t find through Google/Apple/OSM’s public data.

Another modern example, back country and overlanding routes. There's a decent amount of work and danger that goes into it, and not enough public interest for the big dogs to warrant mapping out the paths-less-traveled.

I get GPX routes and roll maps from TAT and BDR because these trails are not even on OpenStreetMaps.

And once you're done with or bored of TAT, you can go to Europe and ride the TET. https://transeurotrail.org/
