MapBox, A Contributor To OpenStreetMap, Gets $575K From The Knight Foundation

While Apple continues to weather very bad press (and embarrassing photographic evidence) over its fumble on Maps in iOS 6, here's another development in the mapping world, also related to an Apple service. MapBox, which contributes to the open-source OpenStreetMap, used in Apple's iPhoto service, is getting an injection of cash. Today MapBox announced a grant of $575,000 from the Knight Foundation, which it says it will use to help improve the core infrastructure of OpenStreetMap -- a boost for open data.
