Hi,
I have questions about case when i want use OSM data in mobile application.
Data will be used in two ways:
a) Displaying nearest POI nodes on using overpass API - data will be
received form server.
b) Using earlier prepared databases in mobile application file format
(SQLite) - extract only nodes form OSM data for specific cities or regions.
In the application there will be only information about POIs in list
form - without map.
1. Where on application should I put information about POI source (“©
OpenStreetMap Contributors” ) - on the screen where data are displayed
?, or is it enough to put this information on screen About in the
application ?
2. Regarding to prepared databases in SQLite format - i want give
possibility for users to download these databases. On site will be
information about source, but information about source (OSM) should be
stored inside SQLite datafile (e.g. dedicated table) ? SQLite format is
acceptable as format for public redistribution or should i also
distribute these data in OSM XML data ?
3. What in case when data in application will contains user private POI
and from OSM source (will be in the same database table distinguished by
osm identifier). This database will be automatically licensed as ODbL,
even it is used only for private purposes ?
Thanks in advance for help and interpretation of license.
