Google Explores Real Estate Data Deal

The San Jose Mercury reports that Google is talking with one of the countries largest aggregators of commerical real estate information, CoStar.

"The company tracks more than 200 bits of data on commercial buildings in the 80 or so biggest markets in the United States and plans to expand to the top 200 markets. It also has operations in the United Kingdom." The company also collects imagery of properties.

The Mercury suggests any new app would be a "premium" Google service build on Google Earth.

Should APB cover "geo news" from corporate blogs, such as Microsoft's new Food Truck Map?
Yes, that's important to me and I would not find it elsewhere.
No, don't bother. It's not that important and besides, every one else covers it.
Google and Microsoft do geospatial?
