No (see above). But I think it's more a question of morality and adhering to
community guidelines. Legally I don't see any problems using informations
from any map (or aerial imagery).
But using information isn't the same as copying.
That's why I've written "using information" on purpose :-).
For me copying would be using the same map style (colours, symbols,...).
Some jurisdictions don't allow this, mine expects a certain individual
creativity.
Getting information out of an imagery or a map and entering it into OSM
is not copying (in the sense of producing an object identical to a given
object).
Bye, Andreas
