The page asserts: "Geocodes are a Produced Work by the definition of the ODbL (section 1.): “Produced Work” – a work (such as an image, audiovisual material, text, or sounds) resulting from using the whole or a Substantial part of the Contents (via a search or other query) from this Database, a Derivative Database, or this Database as part of a Collective Database." The rest of the page then silently slips from the idea that individual "geocodes" (a term of art for co-ordinates Extracted from the Database) are Produced Works (rather than individually not being Substantial Extracts) to the idea that any number of "geocodes" are still a Produced Work. But neither the ODbL nor the page explain why a database of geographical co-ordinates is more like an image, text or sound rather than...a database. Or why if that database contains a Substantial portion of the source Database it is not a Derivative Database. The biggest blank on the page is therefore any explanation of why a derivative database becomes a produced work if we call the queries used to produce it "geocoding" rather than Extraction. :-/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJT9iF/AAoJECciMUAZd2dZrAoH/279WkdDxayizW3HTlxTeu1P EdwVdGE3wt/j5hMnPw3aJvHUl3AYNyOlmPlAhwJDHJTw+C3m9q9YldMU2fmx+kkr ZjYntIUfZsnZ1EHFl/Wj8Vx8EUaJjU/qhc1C0PYNpZXS1I9Xeb54BXmLGqwnp988 I1cyq3P1PgoDlzFU2eio6m61lOKPVqXxQCuegpbrkBqcCzCbHmwd/Km39iV4vfu8 icoEzwpgtl4v67HhFZkXtgeQY06xcHjH6641+hVZCYE16ozAsVFevW8a+urUbmkn B921qizR2SsB0yi/O74RRQNehgCTGrcToKzLP5oEKfjopBI2w1p9dM+Uc7ydd1s= =F2f1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
