FortiusOne makes "the World’s geographic data accessible to everyone for learning, decision making and problem solving." (I think this means they collect GIS and release it in the wild, a la open source, though if anyone from the company is reading this, feel free to correct me in the comments). Open source GIS has an extensive history, and I've long predicted that crowdsourcing map data will eventually be adopted by all Geo-data providers. That's quickly becoming the case, as a new initiative from GPS data giant TomTom makes clear.
