<div dir="ltr">Hi James:<br><br><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div>As per the import guide lines I wish to seek approval for importing building outlines and addresses in the region of Peel.<br><br></div>Documentation is available here:<br><a href="https://github.com/osmottawa/imports/blob/master/Peel-Region.md" target="_blank">https://github.com/osmottawa/<wbr>imports/blob/master/Peel-<wbr>Region.md</a></div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote><div> <br></div><div>Seems like a decent outline, though I have questions:<br><ol><li>Is the Region of Peel licence compatible? I see that it has automatic termination on breech (like many OGL clones) but it also adds "ensure that Your Use of the Information does not breach or
infringe upon any applicable laws". This may add usage implications for those downstream.<br>(Some folks from Peel came to a Toronto Mappy Hour a few years back. They might be willing to give permission to use the data under an ODbL-compatible licence.)<br></li><li>How will you be handling overlapping existing buildings?</li><li>Will you be posting these notes to the OSM wiki? It's a requirement of the guidelines (<a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines#Step_4_-_Documentation">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines#Step_4_-_Documentation</a>), and given the recent visibility than Canada imports have gained, might help avoid a procedural reversion.<br></li></ol></div></div><div class="gmail_signature">cheers from Portland, OR<br><br></div> Stewart
