I've read the section here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Open_Data_License/Use_Cases#Embedding_OSM_data_into_other_products.2Fapplications
and the response: "OK as long as the games company also provides an offer of the open derivative DB free from technical measures in parallel (see Section 4.8b). Otherwise, its explicitly disallowed." My use case is very similar to the linked example as my product is very similar to a video game. My confusion is what "open derivative DB" and "free from technical measures" means in my situation. My use case is the following: 1. Selectively import OSM derived vector files for geographic map area. 2. Import other raster source data for elevation, 3rd party vectors, models, etc. 3. "Massage" source data, fixing collisions, artifacts. 3. Use rendering software to create a 3D terrain using all imported data. 4. Process the 3D terrain to extract proprietary formatted data that runs in a publicly sold application. My questions are: 1. What is the "open derivative DB free from technical measures " in my case above? 2. Besides offering the "open derivative DB", and acknowledging OSM as a source, are there any other restrictions on selling the final proprietary format?
