AI delivery bots maybe? It's basically an aggregate of "here's where it's possible/common to walk" so it's not useful for driving/flying AI. Also useful for marketing, knowing where foot traffic is.
The article says they're treating it as a Large Geospatial Model (like a Large Language Model), so it seems like you could use that as a predictive way to navigate between two points. With an LLM it spits out phrases based on context. The LGM would return paths based on context.
