Dear Michael,

Thank you for your email.  Yes, you may copy the site numbers, comfort
station, water pump and other object locations from the reservation
system maps, provided that you do not publish the maps themselves.
Please note that the maps on the reservation system are not to scale, so
you may find variations from the map to what is on the ground.

If you do publish any information that is taken from the maps (i.e. that
you have not verified yourself), it will be necessary to credit the
information source.  If you require wording around this, please let us
know.

Sincerely
Ontario Parks

Comments: Every year I visit at least three of Ontario's Parks camping.
I've started a mini project to map out the camp roads, sites, water
locations, etc... for each camping trip.  Then upload this data on
OpenStreetMap.org for all to use.   (including the parks if they so
wish)

Here's and example of my last trip:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=44.32926&lon=-79.31917&zoom=17&layers=
M

Could I get permission to copy the site numbers, comfort station, water
pump, and other object locations from the reservation system maps.  When

I'm at the park I plan on verifying all the objects with my GPS, however

if I could get permission to copy these things from your reservations
maps
I could get a rough start.

Thanks,
Michael
