[talk-au] Vic gov data request denied

Well, that seems to me the typical answer from someone who has no clue, doesn’t care about trying to find one, and just wants you to go away and stop bothering him…

Subject: [talk-au] Vic gov data request denied

 

Hi all, some disappointing news. Our request to extend our existing waiver to the Vic Gov Vic Topo datasets to other gov departmental datasets has been denied. See the message below. For background, this request was discussed here late last year:

 

https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-au/2021-October/015230.html

 

By my reading this doesn’t invalidate our existing waiver, just the use of other datasets not covered by it, but I’ll leave others to decode it further. Best wishes Ian

Hi Ian,

 

We are not in a position to sign any agreement as most of the Departments data is open, therefore under the Creative Commons License, you may use and distribute the data as you wish. The only requirement is acknowledgement to DELWP.

 

If you wish to add to the Vicmap Suite of products of require specific detail regarding Vicmap Data, please contact vicmap.help at delwp.vic.gov.au <mailto:vicmap.help at delwp.vic.gov.au> .

Dear DELWP staff,

 

I wish to request an update to the permission and waiver that DELWP

provided to the OpenStreetMap project in 2018 (Ref: SRQ0062658) which

covered VicMap datasets. If your department agrees, we would like to extend

this permission to cover all of DELWP's open data that is available under

the Creative Commons CC BY 4.0 license. The attached document contains more

details on the 2018 agreement and this request. Please contact me if you

require any further information.

 

Thank you for your assistance.
