[Talk-us-sfbay] Uploading sidewalks in San Jose, California

[Harry Cutts]

Hi Vivek,

Nice! I've linked to the import's Wiki page from the California/Imports page
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/California/Import>.

We are using the San Jose data which has an ODbL compliant license (and any
> government data in California has the same).


Could you explain this? I'm interested in using some City of Mountain View
building footprints
<https://data-mountainview.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/c65b17105392449bbff640a9e79a6cdc_0>
myself, but was confused by their site's lack of detail on licensing. Do
you mean that all city, county, and state open data is ODbL compliant by
some California law?

Thanks,

Harry Cutts
