I haven't done any deep dives into their road data but there was ~80 GB of it, mostly from TomTom, in the August release. I think the big question would be how much overlap there is with HERE and how would the metadata compare.

TomTom did a few write ups on their contribution, this one is from 2023: https://www.tomtom.com/newsroom/behind-the-map/how-tomtom-ma...

If you have QGIS running, I did a walkthrough using the GeoParquet Downloader Plugin with the 2.75B Building dataset TUM released a few weeks ago. It can take any bounding box you have your workspace centred on and download the latest transport layers for Overture. No need for a custom URL as its one of the default data sources the plugin ships with. https://tech.marksblogg.com/building-footprints-gba.html

Thanks for the response. There must be value in benchmarking data coverage and quality for routing data such as speed limits, vehicle restrictions, hazardous cargo etc... . I guess the problem is what do you benchmark against.
