 I brought it up on Discord, & concerns were raised over whether we can
legally use "scraped" data, due to licensing copyright etc?

And are there any other areas where you need assistance or fields we can

A couple of suggestions that were made were

1. Perhaps getting higher quality, more frequent, more wide-spread street
view 360 imagery; &

2. Using your influence, which is probably greater than OSM itself, to try
to convince various Federal & State Govt departments to allow us access to
their data

Thanks
