Re: [OSM-talk] Streetview
If not copying, then what would you do with the information gleaned from GSV? If you use it as a trigger for surveying ("I see on GSV that this street name may be wrong in OSM so I need to go check and see for myself") I’d say that would be okay, but other than that, I don’t really see what you could get out of an exercise like that without violating Google’s TOS and/or tainting OSM data with copyrighted sources. Nicolas mentioned great ‘open’ alternatives, that is where we should be looking for (and contributing to!) street level imagery.

Absolutely not. You can use (and contribute to) the free alternatives like https://mapillary.com/ and https://openstreetcam.org/, which are CC-BY-SA and explicitly clarify you can derive data from the images to use in OpenStreetMap. -- Nicolás ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

[OSM-talk] Streetview
Dear Friends, I know that it is not allowed to use Google Maps to "copy" streetnames, but my question is: is it allowed to use Google streetview to check streetnames by checking the photo's for streetname signs? That way I am not just copying but do a kind of survey through picture material. What are your ideas about this?
