It says “add or replace” a property (we do agree the ZIP codes are a property and not a primary feature?). If you keep both ZIP codes in your db, it implies you need both columns, which implies you are somehow mixing them at some point (or you could drop the proprietary ZIP codes, as you won’t need them) Cheers Martin ___ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk

Just because it's one shapefile doesn't mean all of the data in the shapefile has to be under one license.

But I don't think that you need a definitive answer on whether it's insubstantial, since if your usecase is as a filter to select POIs, then you can do that whether the borders make up a substantial extract or not, and you are willing to provide attribution anyway, so you do not need to conclusively avoid ODbL. ___ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk

Actually, it's like 40% OSM borders (hard borders, like roads, rivers, topography and administrative stuff) and 60% own borders, which don't appear in OSM.

Re: [OSM-legal-talk] ZIP codes from OSM in non-compatible licensed dataset
In my view, if you are keeping the two zip codes in different columns and not removing duplicates, then essentially what you have is one property that is "OSM ZIP" and one property that is "proprietary ZIP", and they are two different properties that are not used to improve each other, so it is a collective database per https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licence/Community_Guidelines/Collective_Database_Guideline_Guideline (However, I am doubtful that the ZIPs would be considered nonsubstantial, since that definition is not based on how many columns of OSM is used.)

Re: [OSM-legal-talk] map drawn based on OSM tiles
In my mind, the tile license (CC-BY-SA) sits on top of the database license, as the license to a produced work by the OSMF. So if what is extracted is solely what was in the database, then the extraction is not material that the tile license covered (the tile license cannot actually change the license of the data, which is ODbL, as that would be impermissible under ODbL). This is the same principle, that if you use a CC-BY song in a music video that is licensed as CC-BY-SA, and then someone comes along and rips the song from the music video, the song is still CC-BY, not CC-BY-SA. Thus, assuming the shapefiles are essentially the equivalent of simplified OSM border shapefiles, the shapefiles are covered by ODbL. Now, it sounds like you're not tracing very much, so it's possible that you have traced fewer than 100 features in which case your tracing is insubstantial https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licence/Community_Guidelines/Substantial_-_Guideline On Mon, Oct 7, 2019 at 8:08 AM Lars-Daniel Weber wrote: > From: "Simon Poole" > > I'm not ruling out the first interpretation either and potentially both > > licenses would have to apply in full (which isn't possible without > > conflict). > > I would like to clarify once again that I really do want to attribute OSM. > But it's damn difficult for me to find out under which license my work > falls. > I know lots of people, loading OSM tiles in QGIS and draw stuff on it.

From: "Simon Poole" > I'm not ruling out the first interpretation either and potentially both > licenses would have to apply in full (which isn't possible without > conflict). I would like to clarify once again that I really do want to attribute OSM. But it's damn difficult for me to find out under which license my work falls. I know lots of people, loading OSM tiles in QGIS and draw stuff on it. So I'm pretty confused that there aren't any guidelines discussed. > But if the shape files are simply used for display purposes as a > tendency I would find that they are still being used as a produced work > as per > https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licence/Community_Guidelines/Produced_Work_-_Guideline > Which from the ODbL pov requires attribution and a pointer back to the > data source, which you can provide without being in conflict with CC > BY-SA terms that you would have to adhere to. No, the shapefile will be used for further geoprocessing: selection of POI, which are non-free, but fall into the border I've digitized upon the OSM background map. Would you recommend 1. to use another datasource as background map or 2. draw all borders on an OSM extract once again? Since neither the drawing, nor my digitalization uses OSM data, I'm really asking myself if it's not a trivial act at all? Wouldn't "Drawn on OSM tiles in CC-BY-SA 2.0, based on OSM data in ODbL" be enough as attribution? ___ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
