  "textContent": "A semi-public blockchain maintained on one or more nodes in a map cloud platform comprises data for maintaining a global map of a predetermined geographic area. The blockchain also comprises a plurality of data records, where each data record is associated with an update to a global map. When a message associated with a map update to the global map is received, the nodes of the blockchain determine a consensus by evaluating the map update, where the evaluating comprises performing a plurality of proofs including a proof of location, a proof of iterations, a proof of physical delivery and a proof of safety. When consensus is attained and the map update is validated, a data record associated with the map update is generated and added to the blockchain with a timestamp and a link to prior data records in the blockchain.",
