The Linux Foundation has formed the Overture Maps Foundation, “a collaborative effort to develop interoperable open map data as a shared asset.”
Overture Maps aims to create an “easy-to-use ecosystem of map data,” according to the website. And, through development of a Global Entity Reference System, Overture will work to “simplify interoperability” and “combine resources to build map data that is complete, accurate, and refreshed as the physical world changes,” the announcement says.
The initiative, which includes AWS, Meta, Microsoft, and TomTom as founding members, plans to release its first datasets in the first half of 2023.
