Re: [OSM-legal-talk] Corine Land Cover?
Hi, > From: Martin Koppenhoefer > legal issues aside my concern is that Corine Data is not suitable > technically for OSM: the resolution is too low and not compatible with the > rest of our data. I don't want to import Corine Land Cover data. I would like the Wiki to be correct, though. So can we - theoretically - derive vector data from sources requiring (any form of) attribution and import the derived data into OSM? For example, can we use Corine Land Cover data? I think not, but I would be grateful to be tought something different. Greetings, pmsg ___ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk

Like any other contributions, you are free to delete old landuses and make new ones better. Just do it. Btw, mapping landuse is any way a nightmare, even for experimented contributors. I did. Did you ? Back to the OP, many data sources imported requires some acknowledgment. This is either on the polygons or in changeset comments. Even if it is removed from elements, you find it in the history. (it's even better in the changeset comment since it is permanent) Pieren ___ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk

[OSM-legal-talk] Corine Land Cover?
Dear all, The Wiki currently states that import of Corine Land Cover data into OSM is ok: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Corine_Land_Cover The source says "Unless otherwise indicated, re-use of content on the EEA website for commercial or non-commercial purposes is permitted free of charge, provided that the source is acknowledged." Doesn't the last part (acknowledment) make the data incompatible with OSM? Users of Produced Works from OSM do not acknowledge EEA.
