As for mapping your data does OpenStreetMap have a similar third party API, at least some of the functionality, to build the same sort of thing? OSM may not pull the rug out from under you like Google. I've not used OSM's API so I don't know it's limits or functionality.
My map was modeled after https://mapper.acme.com/ and they switched to OSM, so I have considered it. The downside (besides arguably worse maps and fewer options) is that I try to match up my skills with the business world and OSM does not cut it there generally. If my work ever does require a new use of mapping APIs that will give me an excuse to work on it again.

Most of the data I got from govt sources. EPA databases will give you all sawmills for example.
