Tocmai ce ziceam ca n-am primit raspuns ... E cald, tocmai l-am primit.

Avem verde. So... cum continuam ?

De notat ca volumul de date e important; fisierul osm pe care l-am 
generat este simplificat (nu are atribute user, uid, timestamp si 
altele) pentru a fi mai compact; totusi, ajunge la 1.2 Gb.

project



Dear sir,



I am one of the contributors to an open-source project that you may have
heard of, OpenStreetMap; it's aim is to create open maps by user
contributions.



Recently I have found that land use was covered in France using data
imported from the CORINE Land Cover project; looking closely at the
agreement on the download page, I have found that land cover information
is copyrighted by the EEA and it is in the public domain; also, it can
be used provided that source is acknowledged as "(C) EEA, Copenhagen, 2007"



I would like to use the CORINE Land Cover information to add land use
elements to the OpenStreetMap database for the area within the
boundaries of Romania, of course, acknowledging the source, the EEA; the
conversion from your data to the OpenStreetMap format is automated and
all areas imported will acknowledge the source.



Before proceeding, I would like to have your comments on this use of the
CORINE Land cover data, and if it is permitted.



Looking forward to get a positive answer from you.



Best regards,

Stefan Ungureanu.
