Hey Elias! Thanks for breaking this down. Since you're practically giving away these projects anyways (with a little digging), why not just name them outright? Would help people shine spotlights on the bad practices rife throughout the industry. Thanks!
On mapmaking. If the data is made freely available and the algorithms that gowith them, then I think it is fine toletthe privatesector, and may mean independent third party guys make the maps. They may even make better maps using more elaborate procedures, publish the method and algo, then using much more frequent and intense field survey, check both. Standard and 'independent published', see which does better. I have far less faith in the Big institutions than you do I guess. I also like to see incentives to innovate and get better. I also want to see Africans able tomake maps. None of the institutions you mention are based in Africa .
