Hi Folks

I just got a quote back from one of the satellite people...I outlined a big
block of London
and filled in many automated forms and this came back:

I've written to ask them whether we might have a free snippet too. There's a
link to their licensing
terms in the (rather messy) page. Interestingly, once it's been processed
'enough' (that's a highly philosophic argument) they let go of their rights:

- Distribute works derived from the Product ("Derived Works").  Derived
Works that contain the source image data (pixels) or reasonable facsimile of
the source image data, inherit the copyright and license restrictions of the
source data.  Other Derived Works (vector extraction, classification, etc.)
have no restrictions on use and distribution.  Reduced resolution data sets
(RRDS) with ratios of 16:1 or higher shall have no restrictions on use and
distribution, but shall contain the copyright markings.

There's other various links and my 'markable' Hackney map at:

Best regards Hugh
