Hi Folks,
Just a heads up that we have recently obtained a waiver for a limited subset
of data from the LIST Open Data portal
(https://listdata.thelist.tas.gov.au/opendata/). Data for which Land
Tasmania is the custodian is now available for use in OpenStreetMap (waiver
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Land_Tasmania_Signed_Waivers.pdf>
). You need to check the metadata of individual layers to ensure the
custodian is Land Tasmania. We also obtained a waiver for the Topographic
Basemap tiles and have commenced the process to get that available in
editors.
The wiki has been updated to indicate layers that may be useful to mappers.

The usual caveats apply - some data is old and no longer maintained so be
careful with its use. Also please follow all community and import guidelines
if considering any mass imports.

Cheers - Phil
