As a step one, and before we discuss the potential licensing
consequences, would you agree that

1. What you have created to power your app is a database.

2. The database you have created is partly derived from a non-OSM source
(as far as the "there is a tide station at this address" is concerned).

3. The database you have created is partly derived from OSM (as far as
"this address is at location lon=x, lat=y" is concerned).

Is there any doubt about any of these three statements either on your
side or anyone else's?

Bye
Frederik
