I have been living in Amsterdam for 18 years, so you could argue that at least all the neighborhoods I've lived in, shopped in, visited close friends in and went to school in on a regular basis will be very familiar to me - which they actually are. This comprises roughly half of the city for which I'd for example know any street name just looking at an aerial photograph or a blind map. I use this knowledge on a day-to-day basis when OpenStreetMapping[1] - but how would this be acknowledged in the license Google supposedly has with their aerial imagery suppliers? [1] Of course, for anything I add or modify, I'll have the traces to back up that I've been there. > And question 3 - so I am allowed to trace my house, and my > neighbour's, and my workplace, and the bakery I visit every morning, > and > my birthplace, and my parent's house...? This remains a question for me as well. _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/legal-talk
