Ask HN: Why did Google leave the GIS space?
I work as a devops guy new to the GIS space. I keep hearing how the current giant ESRI was worried about google entering the market with a GIS tool (like a professional google earth), but they never did.
I know they have the locations API, but they don't have a tool like qGIS or ArcGIS.
Does anyone have any insight as to why they didn't pursue entering the market?
