[Talk-cz] DIBAVOD Import - which license?

[Martin Kokeš]

Hi all,

AFAIK DIVABOD is by Czech law (Copyright Act & Water Act) a official or authoritative work (Amtswerk auf Deutsch) and thus it's not in favour with any kind of copyright protection, besides of EU-citizen public free access right to all hydrography informations embodied in INSPIRE directive.
