Re: [Talk-ca] Crowdsourcing buildings with Statistics Canada

I got Bjenk from Stats Can to get a statement from the city of Ottawa Monday to explicitly use the data in OSM. Licensing is compatible in terms of OGL-CA and ODBL, but if a statement allows the import to proceed we will get it even though is seems bureaucratic more than a legal issue Have a nice

Re: [Talk-ca] Crowdsourcing buildings with Statistics Canada

Essentially OSM is not well set up to handle these sort of issues. Normally interpretations are base on custom and practice. The wording is slightly different between the two licences. OSM decision making for local matters is normally left to local mappers. So the decision to allow the import

Re: [Talk-ca] Crowdsourcing buildings with Statistics Canada

Did you include permission for the bus stops as well? They are from the same source and the same licence. I think I might have included one pitch sport soccer. The pitch was mapped but the sport soccer was I must confess taken from their open data source. Thanks John On 20 Jan 2017 8:17 pm,

Re: [Talk-ca] Crowdsourcing buildings with Statistics Canada

We spent four years working with Treasury Board and Ottawa on the Open Data Licence and they took extensive consultations. Given four lawyers I'm sure one will say it isn't compatible but the feeling at Treasury Board was it is and the Ottawa license is based on the TB license. This particular

No we are not. The data license of Ottawa is compatible with ODBL, website link is borked, that is all. On Jan 20, 2017 4:50 PM, "john whelan" wrote: > We aren't talking about removing all the bus stops in Ottawa again are we? > > I thought we'd been through the licensing

Re: [Talk-ca] Crowdsourcing buildings with Statistics Canada

We aren't talking about removing all the bus stops in Ottawa again are we? I thought we'd been through the licensing issues before and for those of us without cars knowing the bus stop number is extremely useful. Thanks Cheerio John On 20 January 2017 at 16:06, Martijn van Exel

Hi Duane, Thanks. I had overlooked the examples page (even though I searched the OSM wiki for the exact term!) I do appreciate the granularity of the destination:street tagging and would encourage the Telenav mappers to use it as well then, but we like to stick to conventions that are

Re: [Talk-ca] [Talk-us] destination:street

In the US the prefix would typically be in the network tag, like network=US:US ref=89 for US highway 89, etc. We have seen some of this in Canada as well. (CA:ON for Ontario highways etc.) Martijn van Exel > On Jan 20, 2017, at 12:57 AM, Paul Norman wrote: > > On 1/19/2017
