Ian, yes templates are at https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licence/Waiver_and_Permission_Templates which includes a generic cover letter. It would be a good idea to reference the existing Vicmap specific waiver we have and link to

Hi Tony, DELWP can only give approval to use datasets that they create/control. Lots of the datasets on Data Vic aren’t from DELWP and wouldn’t be covered, but many of the useful ones are theirs. Unless DELWP created the Vic subset of the emergency markers dataset, I don’t imagine that they

I think it'll be much easier to request a waiver for a wider set of Victorian open data. DELWP has been very accommodating and kindly granted us a waiver for Vicmap, so I can't see there being a problem with other CC BY data like

Hi all, a brief update on Vic State Forest datasets... My suggestion that the VicMap Crown Land Tenure database was "a mess" probably had anyone who knows about GIS data structures rolling their eyes at my ignorance. It didn't make any sense to me either, so I spent a couple more days studying

Hi all, I started a new thread so these links can be easily found in the future. This builds on a recent thread on permissible data sources to answer 3 questions: (1) Which data layers from the Vic gov contain State Forest (SF) boundary data? (2) Which of these layers do we have permission
