[OSM-legal-talk] Shipping OSM data with a commercial application

[Gary Morin]

Hi



 

I put this question up on the forum but they suggested I place it on the
list here.


We develop commercial applications primarily using MapGuide Open source.
The applications are mainly installed and used in house at our clients
sites.

I would like to supply the OSM data of the UK , converted to MapGuide
Opensource SDF format, to our clients for use in the application. The
application is a information tool, they will store commercial information
on various projects across the country.


Does the OSM allow me to convert and supply the data this way? I would be
more than happy to make the converted MapGuide data available for pubic
access.

 

I think I should be able to pass the data on to my clients. But as soon as
my clients use it for work and overly their data on it, will they have
make their data available to the public?. If they did, then I can't use
OSM, my clients data is commercial sensitive and they will not be able to
make it publicly available.

 

 



Thanks

Gary
