>It's interesting to consider Google's data from another perspective:

Google's data is not limited to its autonomous driving project, despite what the cleverly-worded sentence implies. Off the top of my head: Google also has 3D LIDAR data from human-driven StreetView vehicles, GPS and accelerometer data from millions of mobile Waze and GMaps users.
