Agreed, my opinion is that generally a scenery generating program should be considered a produced work.
It's possible the program reads from a derived database, depending on whether map features were added, but that *database* could be made available under ODbL. The program being GPL shouldn't block that (otherwise, you couldn't have a photo processing program that was GPL, for example) -Kathleen On Thu, Aug 1, 2019, 7:54 AM <newsgr...@pirschkarte.de> wrote: > Considering the Produced Work - Guideline: Is the result of Osm2city > in your opinion a product or a derived database? > > If it is a product, then you can choose your own license, but you > still have comply with the conditions of No. 4.3.
