2. Bacolod has good traces uploaded not much, but it seems to show
very good coverage at least in the city center. See this image of

Hi,
this topic is discussed every now and then. Facts are free, but you
can't use the help of copyright protected material. If you only copy one
house/street/whatever maybe that doesn't matter. But what if all of us
are doing this? You end up with a 100% copy of the map and than even you
will
.
Cheers,
Totor

Many people already argued that copying from aerial imagery is not
governed by copyright law. Case law proved it:

However, Google terms of use explicitly do not allow this:

That said,
Hi Craig,
Good points overall. I agree that some of these copyright scaremongering
isn't valid and that possibly in some jurisdictions (probably the US, but
not the UK), copying facts from a map image is OK. But for everyone's
information, OSM chooses to be on the safe and cautious side. Unless

I'm still seeing plenty of new editors and high editing activity in the
Bacolod area.
One example is this subdivision that was drawn in. The roads match the
Google satellite imagery but there is no GPX trace to back it up:
