Hi Ewen,
Its not just my lobbying β Alex Leith and Andrew Harvey had both been pursuing this in the past. I think it was a personal visit and past work interactions with those involved that clinched the deal. We are also hopeful that a licence change to the LIST basemap imagery may come about in the future giving us access to that as well which will be great for smaller rural towns. Land Tasmania organises and runs many of the photography flights on behalf of smaller councils etc and I think they are keen to make the imagery more available (even if some is older itβs really high resolution!) If there are others layers that folks have an interest in accessing just let me know and will see how we go with other Tasmanian government agencies. If anyone would like a spreadsheet with all the layers we gained access to, just drop me a private email. We only listed the more relevant ones on the wiki. Cheers β Phil (on behalf of all the lobbyists!)

Data for which Land Tasmania is the custodian is now available for use in OpenStreetMap (waiver <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Land_Tasmania_Signed_Waivers.pdf> ). You need to check the metadata of individual layers to ensure the custodian is Land Tasmania. We also obtained a waiver for the Topographic Basemap tiles and have commenced the process to get that available in editors. The wiki has been updated to indicate layers that may be useful to mappers. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Data_Sources#Tasmania The usual caveats apply β some data is old and no longer maintained so be careful with its use. Also please follow all community and import guidelines if considering any mass imports. https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Organised_Editing_Guidelines https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines Cheers - Phil _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org <mailto:Talk-au@openstreetmap.org> https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au -- Warm Regards Ewen Hill
