[talk-au] Using data from traditional owners of the land / Current waiver form

[Ewen Hill]

Hi,
   The people of the Goolarabooloo and Jabirr Jabirr countries around Broome
developed a 90km walking trail to showcase their country. This was done 30
years ago and uses roads, beach, rock escarpments and overgrown trails. You
are welcome to use  the trail yourself but the country organises guided
walks which are infrequent (3 or 4 a year of parts of the walk). 

   I have sent the Goolarabooloo people a basic email offering assistance to
them drawing the route themselves or offering to provide a waiver later
however a few questions piqued my interest

1. Has anyone dealt with Aborignal elders to obtain knowledge before and was
it successful?
2. Is a walk copyright-able or where does OSM sit when it comes to elders
use of knowledge of country to construct a walk relatively recently where
parts of the walk will be arbitrary depending on tide and season.
3. Can someone assist with the location of the current waiver form and
process
