[OSM-talk] CORINE land cover data

[Emilie Laffray]

Until recently, the data was owned by each state. You had to ask each one of
them to get the data. In addition, CLC 2000 is pretty much useless which was
the only one available for free.
2006 is the one you want to start working with.

explicitly ask EEA about it? we're are talking about _one_ database (OSM)
and _one_ dataset (CLC)? The confirmation you received was limited to the
Romanian data? The CLC dataset is not homogeneous in terms of license then?

an email asking about using their data in OSM. The response was positive and
was delivered in around 2 weeks. So I recommend to do the same thing if you
want to be sure.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Corine_Land_Cover it says
"Until now, the terms of use did not allow commercial use unless the Agency
has expressly granted the right to do so [2]", but if you go to link [2], it
says "Unless otherwise indicated, re-use of content on the EEA website for
commercial or non-commercial purposes is permitted free of charge, provided
that the source is acknowledged." Is our wiki out-of-date? CLC data can now
be used in OSM (not only in France and other specific areas)? --Oscar
