Comments

There is a machine-readable 1:250.000-scale vectorial map data suitable for ingestion in digital map-making systems (GIS), which includes administrative boundaries, water bodies, transportation infrastructure, energy and communication, etc. There are several other map products, at scales both greater and smaller that the above one. The licensing is unclear but claimed to be public domain, see https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-br/2009-January/000029.html.
