3d mapping company acquired for $1 billion

The tech seems simliar to Stuart Nixons original vision. I guess it shows that some players in the market, value this kind of unique tech in the mapping space at a nice penny :)

I'm holding! As it's only a matter of time until the international expansion brings Nearmap to an audience with deep pockets.
