Great list... seems the emerging OIN is aligned with frictionless raw data sharing - I would give you a PR if it wasn't a GIST git@gist.github.com:e69d0f377f4f81c2054b.git

Thanks. OIN seems a little moribund and skeletal, though I like the approach.

Great presentation and list of resources. You're observations on industry trends are very astute and I hope it is seen by a wide audience.

@RobertLRead had similar ideas here https://medium.com/@RobertLeeRead/the-minimum-government-responsibility-api-first-24cf67b9ec73#.yufzf7su9. That is to get the raw data out there first, API first, GUI second. Maybe the raw data can be shared best through http://data.gov. What do you think?

Thanks for your direct approach Paul. I think developers need not be the gatekeepers of the spatial flame, however. That approach failed for SDI. What mobile needs is consumer-level standards for geo: HTML needs to support maps and the spatial "Web". Come and join us over at the Maps for HTML Community Group. We are small, but growing https://github.com/Maps4HTML

@pramsey, hello. maybe you have done some more research on data harvesting, do you have an idea about creating datapipes and streaming my own data to my own tilers and serving them customly same way mapbox does from places like OSM. i don't mind the technicality and all softwares involved, maybe i can be a little startup in africa.
