<p><font face="Verdana">Hello Andy,</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">It's OK to make it public, the resource you
refer to is marineregions.com ? <br>
</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">I am in the final process of getting a
waiver to use their data sets.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">Following data sets are offered as to be
included in OSM:</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana"><span style="mso-list:Ignore">1.
Maritime Boundaries v11;<br>
<br>
2. IHO Sea Areas;<br>
<br>
3. Marineregions: the intersect of the Exclusive Economic
Zones and IHO areas;<br>
<br>
4. Marine and land zones: the union of world country
boundaries and EEZ's;<br>
<br>
5. World Marine Heritage Sites;<br>
<br>
6. Emission Control Areas (Not integrated in gazetteer).</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">We have several options to make these
available:<br>
1. As shape files, downloadable from their website or from a OSM
related server instance (OSMF Nextcloud ?)<br>
2. As an imagery layer by accessing their gazetteer: </font><font

style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><br>
</span></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">I don't see a feasible short term solution
for mass importation of their data. Not until we have global
acceptance of their authority and feedback on compliance with
local legislation and OSM practice, addressing the issues as
mentioned before in this thread, like f.i. in the UK. It seems
feasible however, to organise this with local chapters.<br>
So as a start I would suggest to start with manual tracing or
import on individual country basis.<br>
<br>
Please comment on the above or other options we have since I am
not very experienced in these matters.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">marineregions requested for some detailed
attribution then just a general reference on the contributors
page. They would like to have attribution explicitly
referencing the date of the data and the specific datasets. A
possible solution is that we would require the tags source=* and
source:date=* f.i. to be used mandatory. Personally I don't
see any objections to this, except the fact if we are willing
and able to enforce or make this mandatory. As an alternative I
could offer them the option that we describe it as mandatory but
don't have the infrastructure or resources to enforce it. <br>
</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">Your comments will be highly appreciated, as
I see this as a big improvement for OSM to include data for
boundaries from a recognised "authoritative" institution whos
data is also used by the UN and expressed their interest to
actively support OSM in integrating their data and co-operate
with our community.</font></p>

<pre>Hello,
Just so that everyone is aware - Ceuta and Melilla haven't been
forgotten about. I'm aware (because I was cc:ed on the conversation) of
at least one attempt to try and find a source from which a sensible
border can be derived (without having to do it "freehand"), although as
I said previously at
<a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2021-March/086288.html" moz-do-not-send="true">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2021-March/086288.html</a>
I'm not convinced that using that source will necessarily be easy. See also
