[talk-ph] Google Street View

2015-10-17 Thread Jim Morgan
Just noticed that they've finally published all the images they took last year 
for Metro Manila, and a little beyond. Very cool. I'll be searching this today 
for a while to discover some "Manila Moments" captured on camera. 

Meanwhile, what's the legality of this situation: I remember there's a 
restaurant on a certain street in QC. I go to Google Street View and find out. 
Is this information OK to put on OSM? Its not tracing maps ... its public 
domain info ... I already half know what the restaurant is called ... 

So I guess a broader question would be, "What is OK to use from this data?"

Happy (rainy) Sunday all. 

Jim

Unfortunately, I believe any data from Google Street View will be
considered as derived work, and is not usable for OSM. The FAQ states that
here [0]

My personal interpretation for the reference to "any" wording of that FAQ
entry with regard to data from Google, includes images from Google Street
View.

A question similar to yours was posted here [1]
