Mapzen, sadly, will now be remembered in the past tense. Early this week, Mapzen announced that it will shut down all it’s services because….well, we’re not entirely sure yet. Balancing resources between commercial and the Open Source community can be extremely complex.
Mapzen did a wonderful job in the past 4 years, pushing the envelope of geolocation technology forward and bringing the community ahead with them. The wealth of OpenSource data and code left behind will last long after MapZen is completely gone.
Understandably, the unintended consequences of these developments left a number of businesses in trouble – businesses that rely on MapZen’s APIs for day-to-day operations.
