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 compatible and you received explicit approval
from GCC then you could use this data.

G'day all
Been mapping on & off for a few years now but have recently got into
it more actively due to having more time available.
Mainly working around the Gold Coast / SEQ but occasionally further
afield as well.
Have only just found the talk list & forum, & have read quite a few
threads re copyright & use of Govt data, so a question to all you
knowledgable folk! :-)
Gold Coast City Council have (fairly) recently set up an online city
plan: http://cityplanmaps.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/CityPlan/, which shows
planning zones etc as well as street names.
As part of the terms & conditions it includes this for copyright:
"2.0 Copyright
Council owns or is licensed to exercise copyright and all other
intellectual property rights to material on this website.
You may reproduce the contents of this website in your web browser
(and in any cache file produced by your web browser) for the sole

You accept that your use of interactive mapping is limited to your own
personal use or for use in the ordinary course of your business. You
must not on-sell or distribute interactive mapping information for
reward or otherwise to any other third party, nor produce any hardcopy
products incorporating the information for commercial use."
Full T&C if anyone wants to check anything:
http://www.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/planning-and-building/city-plan-interactive-mapping-terms-conditions-21859.html
I'm guessing that we can't make use of that plan info because of "You
must not on-sell or distribute interactive mapping information for
reward or otherwise to any other third party"?
They also have a Park Finder page which let's you search for park
names, facilities, sports & so on:
http://www.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/thegoldcoast/park-finder-24304.html
It's disclaimer & copyright page:
http://www.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/disclaimer-and-copyright.html, says:
"Works and subject matter other than works, including pages,
documents, online graphics, audio and video are protected by
the/Copyright Act 1968/as amended. All rights, including moral rights,

So, how about that one, can we use it?
Has anybody ever dealt with GCCC re access to their data? Any luck?
May be a letter to the CEO asking for permission!
Thanks
Graeme
