I'd argue that this step could be seen as creating a Produced Work not a 
derived database. Consider if you rendered a "heat map" of OSM where each pixel 
in the output contained a z18 tiles, and value of the pixel was equal to the 
number of roads in it. Similar to the ITOWorld heat maps of the where the edits 
have been.  Conveniently you can do the same for the other map data, and then 
just create a new image which is the difference of the two.

Would it still be a produced work if instead of storing it in an array (e.g. an 
image) you stored it as a list of <lat, lon, value> triples, say in a database? 
I've never managed to figure out where the seemingly arbitrary cutoff between 
Produced Work and Derived Database is.
