As well as noted on http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors * While it's not a requirement, interested to start conversation about more robust attribution down the line, ala the dynamic attribution in Google Maps (something like an API to view attribution for a particular area, to integrate into web viewers) * HOT is welcome to make additional requests. They want to know the best place to formally let OSM know the above. If the gist of the above sounds reasonable, I think the best place to announce would be on legal-talk@ While we are working on the legal details, it would also be worthwhile for us to test the suitability of the imagery for OSM tracing. Is the geo-referencing and resolution fit for our purposes?

If yes, please forward to the HOT mailing list as it is of value to them. No. CC-BY requires an attribution at every use of the data. That's why it is not compatible to our ODbL/Contributor Terms. OSM requires only an attribution of OpenStreetMap contributors and nobody else from its data users. We have some government data in Germany which is available under CC-BY. Usually the data owner granted an exemption to use the data because he was satified by attribution at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors You have to ask Skybox for a exemption to make this imagary usable for OSM.

Re: [OSM-talk] Skybox release aerial imagery
Rob IMHO only: I would suggest asking for explicit permission (to trace and to distribute the results on ODbL terms). It is not clear at all if their licence would allow it and reading the blurb it seems as if the use case they are thinking of is more online display of the images. You should ask the LWG for their opinion in any case.

Re: [OSM-talk] Skybox release aerial imagery
Yes, let's the LWG answer about the license. Let me say that this is great what we have accomplished as an OpenStreetMap community with this Ebola outbreak. Andrew Buck and myself, and HOT as the umbrella organization are there to make the bridge between this community and the humanitarian organizations, to strenghten the relations with the humanitarian organizations. This is one mission among others in OSM and we simply cannot do such job without the OSMcommunity. The response we have received for both the Haiyan typhoon in november 2013 and for this Ebola outbreak is simply fantastic. There is a lot of media and academic attention about the progression of OpenStreetMap. Since the Haiti Earthquake in january 2010, there humanitarian organizations and UN agencies are also follwing closely the OSM community. With this unprecented response over the last 7 months with this Ebola outbreak, OSM is under the spots. The West Africa Ebola Response wiki page reports this media coverage. For this Ebola outbreak, HOT coordinates with MSF, Red Cross, UN-WHO, UN-OCHA and the Digital Humanitarian Network. To date, almost 2,000 OSM contributors from 100 countries and more then 10 millions objects edited. More then these statistics, this is the professionalism of the OSM organization, the capacity to provide a reliable environment and tools, assure connectivity with GIS softwares, propose various free Mapping services, including for small devices, and adapt quickly to the needs of the humanitarian organizations that is recognized. This professionalism of the OSM community among the various volunteer communities is the main message. Let's hope that we can keep the spirit of this community and move forward as an organization with respectful and constructive discussions.

That is the one side of it, the other is that you will find that the opinions on if tracing even creates a derivative work to be very divided (IMHO is depends on jurisdiction) and I would find explicit permission better than legal speculation and potentially ignoring the licence. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
