<div>but I did receive approval from the city that
we could import data from <a href="http://data.ottawa.ca/dataset" target="_blank">data.ottawa.ca/dataset</a>.
Which I documented here: <br>

I'm not a legal expert, but I think that OSM would have trouble
with some of the licence terms, such as <a href="http://ottawa.ca/en/mobile-apps-and-open-data/terms-use#terms" target="_blank">http://ottawa.ca/en/mobile-apps-and-open-data/terms-use#terms</a>
<br>

Yes, the Ottawa terms are pretty clearly incompatible with
OpenStreetMap, and do not meet the Open Definition. Giving us
permission is fine, but we need to be certain that the city realizes
what it is granting permission for, and we should also make sure
that they realize the license they currently have is non-open and a
problem.<br>
