#Mapycz (now #Mapycom) from #Seznam use #OpenStreetMap everywhere except their home country - Czech Republic, where they have their own proprietary maps.
There have been rumours in the #OSM community that they actually copy from OSM. Today I found proof that they really do.
I mapped a new park in #Brno just by surveying and taking notes last year. Later the park showed up on Mapy.com with exactly the same path layout. The new orthophoto is out and it revealed that I didn't get everything right and Seznam got it wrong too. Exactly the same mistakes.
Not cool, Seznam.

After another (thankfully) boring #CrossBorderRail I’m back in #Brno for two New Hire sessions! Different hotel this time, immediately got an upgrade :) #LifeAtRedHat
Last 24 hours from our #AirQuality monitor. This is a typical day when you can already smell it. We live in a residential area on the outskirts of #Brno and in winter the air quality tends to be (sometimes much) worse than in the city center. All because of local heating systems that use wood and, to a lesser extent, coal.
I hate big shopping malls. That's why I always need to find the best way to the business and back. #Mapycz and #GoogleMaps are useless for that. POIs are missing, wrongly placed or grouped in the middle of the mall.
But some shopping malls in #Brno are so well mapped in #OpenStreetMap that it can navigate me right to the business. And that even includes changing floors and using escalators.
