,----[ Quote ]
| Playing with open map data can be a fun
| pastime. Creating and editing open data can
| be not only fun, but also a boost for free
| data to go along with free software. Whether
| you want to view open map data or edit it,
| there's no shortage of applications that run
| on Linux and work well with OpenStreetMap
| (OSM) data. Here's a look at some useful
| mapping applications for displaying and
| editing open map data on the Linux desktop.

Should You Customize Open Source ERP?
,----[ Quote ]
| I could reinvent the wheel here, but thereâs no
| point. The best post that I have seen on this
| comes from my friend, John Henley of Decision
| Analytics. Henley details some advantages to
| customizing an application. They include:
|
| * Core competencies
| * Your other front/back-office systems
| require it
| * You want additional fields and/or
| different field sizes
| * Regulatory requirements

| Maps are created at this stage. The data we
| have mined are ordered, analyzed, and
| tagged. We need to make sure that all the
| team follows a naming convention or comment.
| The coordinator should watch for over
| marking / mis-marking of the same location.
| Once the data is properly tagged, it is time
| to upload it to the OSM server.
