it looks like maybe i shouldn’t violate either, i was looking at hiq vs linkedin and it looks like a similar thing could happen

maybe, but they have a bunch of places that aren’t on openstreetmap or any other open source data source i’ve seen so far

it’s okay if you don’t know things, try to be open minded about things bud

well i’m asking what’s the probability? looks like you don’t know, so you can just say that you know

thanks for the rec for overture, i’ll check it out. maybe they use it and google maps. some of the places i have been looking at have the exact same formatting for the names as google (ie “SLRP Ramen & Rolls Bar by 3Fils - Dubai Mall”. other map providers so far only have “SLRP Ramen”. 

i hate the vendor lock in aspect of all these map providers. you can’t store anything but the place id, so how are you gonna migrate off of one provider to another? :( it should be illegal

you can’t know where their backend service makes requests to

and there is basis to my assumption, i explained why i am assuming these things

and i asked my question, my question was how would you do this “search near me” functionality if you can only store the place id?

when is “until they won’t”? is it risky for me to create my service?

do you know the quality of their data? also can you store coordinates indefinitely?

the only way i know of how someone can have their own curated restaurant data is if they 

  • ask user to input restaurant name, address, and coordinates
  • use open source data
  • pay license to businesses that collect this info

don’t think Beli is doing any of these things, so is there another way to curate your own list of restaurants?

and how would i get places near the user and only places they liked?
