On Thursday, the german »Bundesarchiv« (German Federal Archive) announced that they will donate about 100,000 images (mainly related to the german history) to Wikipedia Commons. Of course, that’s really great news. But even better, this confirms us over at openstreemap.de in our perception that german authorities will contribute their geodata to openstreetmap – one day. In the meantime, we still have to do the hard work manually until we become widely accepted as the “Wikipedia of geodata”.
