Well the legal question is altogether a different one from the question of what 
*is* done.

Subject: [Geowanking] Phrase from County GIS License


Here is a phrase from the GIS Data License from one of my local counties. It 
seems pretty gutsy. What do you guys think? Is it legal to put this type of 
restriction on publicly funded data? 
  
“GIS Product is not to be used for any purpose other than that indicated on the 
application. The 
applicant shall not disclose, lease, sell, distribute, make, transfer, or 
assign the GIS product or 
engage in any other transaction which has the effect of transferring the right 
to use for all or part of 
the GIS Product without prior written consent of the County of San Joaquin 
Community 
Development Department.”
