<p>The question seems to crop up at least once per year, in general
I would suggest searching the forums, mailing lists and help site
for answers before jumping to conclusions.</p>
<p>That said, your question is oddly ambivalent, so just to be
clear: the permission granted in 2010 to use google provided
imagery narrowly applied to the imagery available at that time,
and the purpose of the Haitian relief effort underway back then.
It clearly doesn't extend to use of google imagery in the decade
following and now, and definitely not for any other purpose than
originally indicated.</p>
<p>Outside of that there is no reason to believe that data traced
from imagery back in2010/2011 is in any way tainted and couldn't
be used in current OSM.</p>

<div>Hello,<br>
</div>
There has recently been a discussion in OSM Discord about <a
href="https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/source=Google%2C
2010-01-21" moz-do-not-send="true">source=Google tags</a> in
Haiti. The usage seems to have documented at <a
href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Haiti/Imagery_and_data_sources/Old#Google_Imagery"
moz-do-not-send="true">wiki</a>, but seems like there isn't
any explicit clauses about allowing to OSM on the linked
mailinglist posts, and the Google page says "Use restricted to
non-commercial use in or related to Haitian relief efforts."
Also, as that was before the CC BY-SA and ODbL switch in 2012, I
and other users have expressed some doubts about whether we are
still having permission to use that source on OSM. I personally
haven't contacted Mikel yet, or the other people involved in the
discussion and approved the usage on OSM.<br>
