What we're trying to do at the moment is hopefully convince Toerisme Vlaanderen's provincial subsidiaries that we can provide them with valuable feedback where there are errors in their data, but in return we'd like to get full access to their data.<br>
<br>Say we get permission to import the routes we don't have yet from their data. The next time you go out for a walk, you have less work to do as you only have to take note of where you find differences.<br><br>The same applies to house numbers. The next mapping party in Brussels will be a bit different than what we did before. On 6 and 7 July we'll go out to look for discrepancies in the address data which came from UrbIS and we'll be able to concentrate on adding shops and other amenity information, maybe where the entrances are and if it's possible to get in with a wheelchair, who knows.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Why would I compare my data with e.g. the data from Tourisme Vlaanderen. Today, during a walk of 8km, I found 1 node that was numbered incorrectly, 1 that was placed a few hundrerd meters away from the official position and a path that was layed out different from their map.<div>

Hi Ben,<br>
<br>
there is a clear deadline! The 14th of June they are doing the Flemish Open Data day on which they have to show their work. That day is going to advertise the Flemish open data licenses as well. We just need to convince AGIV to start using the right ones:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://okfn.be/2013/05/04/flemish-open-data-licenses/" target="_blank">http://okfn.be/2013/05/04/<u></u>flemish-open-data-licenses/</a><br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Pieter<div><div><br>

Bad news!<br>
<br>
The AGIV licence of the adressing data (CRAB) is NOT ok for reuse for OSM. I was in the process of requesting a licence.<br>
<br>
The story is: you can get the data but when a third person is reusing this they also need to sign a licence. This means that we cannot reuse this data in the OSM-database. At least not copying it, maybe mapping based on it and not copying would be ok...<br>
<br>
In my opinion this is not really open data, just free data as in beer! I did get a response that they are aware of this limitation and are working on this but there is no clear deadline. One day we will get this data, including reuse, but we are not really there yet. But maybe by then all addresses will be mapped already and OSM will be the reference! :-)<br>
<br>
I'm very sorry about getting everybody worked-up about finally being able to use this data but there was some misunderstanding about what usage in OSM meant. In our case mapping or copying the data instead of just geocoding on the main OSM-website.<br>
<br>
Met vriendelijke groeten,<br>
Best regards,<br>
