Nanaimo is famous for its heavy use of GIS (Google and Safe Technology among others, see my discussion of the city's presentation at the FME User Conference) and now, due to demand, will offer up information on who's buried in town. The data, originally on paper maps, is now accessible by staff, but will be on the city website, accessible to all, by summer. And, it's likely it'll be on Google Earth, too.
