If they're the Landsat/Blue Marble images that we use as the "rest of the world" layers where we don't have detailed PhotoMaps, then they are NASA data (see <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><a href="http://www.hw009i.nearmap.com/legal/copyright">http://www.nearmap.com/legal/copyright</a>). It's pretty easy to spot the difference, as in this location:<div>
<a href="http://www.nearmap.com/?q=@-36.244965,147.034836&ll=-36.244965,147.034836&z=13&t=h&nmd=20101117">http://www.nearmap.com/?q=@-36.244965,147.034836&ll=-36.244965,147.034836&z=13&t=h&nmd=20101117</a></div>
<div>...Our PhotoMaps to the west, Landsat to the east.</div><div><br></div><div>I believe that you can use the NASA data, but you should check the NASA pages (<a href="http://landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/">http://landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/</a>, <a href="http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/BlueMarble/">http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/BlueMarble/</a>) to be sure.</div>

I'm working out whether I am able to accept the new OSM terms. I haven't used the detailed NearMap aerial photos, but what I have used is a low-quality image at zoom 13 and 14. I used these images for the Kiewa River in northern Victoria (this was before the detailed imagery for northern Victoria was put in, and most of the river is still outside the high-resolution images), and for an airstrip on Flinders Island. Are these low-resolution images public domain (in which case I can accept the new OSM terms), or are they copyrighted (in which case I will need to replace this data with Yahoo or Bing data prior to accepting)? (Bing imagery is much better, so the river will probably need to be retraced anyway.)<br>
