Re: [talk-au] Use of Gold Coast Council info?

I believe these are the same paragraphs in CC BY 2.0 and 3.0, but in any case you need to check the licence text as particularly in the case of AUS the licences are sometimes customized and the numbering may have changed. Simon On 17.03.2017 22:49, Graeme Fitzpatrick wrote: > Thanks everyone

Huge thank you Simon, and those who helped out with this! The cover is a great summary we can pass on to rights holders and the form to be signed appears to provide legal rigour for organisations to grant the additional rights required. On 18 March 2017 at 06:46, Simon Poole

Thanks everyone for your input here - it's all getting very hard :-( Simon, thanks for the info re the "official" position. That page mentions "a similar document for obtaining the necessary waivers for the 2.0 and 3.0 versions of CC BY

I completely agree with you that the blanket data.gov.au permission doesn't sit right, and we should be getting the source agency to grant additional terms to their license that attribution can be done on the Contributors wiki page. On 16 March 2017 at 09:33, Andrew Davidson

Re: [talk-au] Use of Gold Coast Council info?

I think even if you're manually importing, it's still importing and it's helpful if it's discussed here first. Working out what tags to bring across is top of mind. On 16 Mar 2017 4:57 PM, "Graeme Fitzpatrick" wrote: > Hi > > re: "I'm interested to know which datasets

Hi re: "I'm interested to know which datasets you plan to import, your mapping of the tags, and the process you'll use (will you manually merge existing objects?)" Importing datasets is WAY above my level of skill!!! If we're able to make use of this data (stay tuned!), I myself would

Re: [talk-au] Use of Gold Coast Council info?

Sigh...I was hoping that no-one would ever re-open the data.gov.au permission can of worms. The general view is that to use CC-BY data in OSM we need explicit permission from the *rights holder* (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/ODbL_Compatibility). data.gov.au is a dataset

Hi all, I have to disagree with the idea that you can use this material. It is very explicitly “under copyright” and that copyright is clearly not compatible with Openstreetmap “open” policy. No CEO of the Council will have the authority to give “permission” to use their data as the CEO

Re: [talk-au] Use of Gold Coast Council info?

Basically no unless you have explicit approval from Gold Coast Council. It has more to do with osm user conditions than whether or not GCC licence is compatible. It's the section that says something like "you own the data or have explicit permission to use it". If the data licence was
