Is that from their Interactive Map disclaimer -
http://maps.nanaimo.ca/nanaimomap/ ?

Looking through their data catalogue - http://data.nanaimo.ca/, I haven’t
found any other statement that conflicts.

 

What were/are you attempting to get from the aerial photos?

 

Cheers,

Tim

Well, unfortunately, all of that is overridden by this statement I found on
the City of Nanaimo's own map portal:

"All rights, title and interest (including copyright, patent and other
intellectual property rights) contained in the Information remain vested in
the City of Nanaimo at all times."

I am no legal person by any means, and Nanaimo has adopted v2 of the OGL

it when there was a moment to do so.

The way I read v2 of the license is that it is available to use so long as
you acknowledge the source with the defined attribution statement of the
region.

 

“Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence -
Nanaimo.”

 

If multiple sources were used or multiple attributions are not practical,
one would use

 

“Contains information licensed under the Open Government License – British
Columbia.”

Though it looks like they missed updating the last paragraph under
Versioning.

 

 

To answer your actual question though, nope I am not aware of another WMS
source :)

Does anyone know of an OSM-compatible free WMS source we can use for aerial
imagery for all of Nanaimo?  Bing does not have street-level imagery for
Nanaimo north of 49.14°N and east of 123.94°W, and all of the sources I can
find for that imagery (Google, the City of Nanaimo itself) are walled off
behind a layer of legal cowardice.
