Google Maps Data API (via) I’m disappointed by this one—it’s really just a CRUD store for the KML files used in Google MyMaps. It would be a lot more useful if it let you perform geospatial calculations against your stored map data using some kind of query API—a cloud service alternative to tools like PostGIS.

  1. What kind of geospatial queries would you want to run? I'de be interested in building a service like that. It fits nicely inside the union of my day job (gogrid.com) and personal project (transitandtrails.org).
