My main problem is that I haven't been on a GIS project since 1997.<br>
Can somebody provide me with some (completely free!) sample data:<br>
- vector data with streets and street names in multiple languages<br>
- vector data of some shapes (for instance a city, municipalities)<br>
- some additional data, for instance: location of hotels, landmarks,...<br>
<br>
If you provide me with such a data set, I'll make you a PDF and<br>
show why I think PDF is an ideal format.</blockquote><div><br>Here we go:<br><br> OSGeo Educational data set<br> <a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Edu_Data_Package_North_Carolina" target="_blank">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Edu_Data_Package_North_Carolina</a><br>
