Hello, I am an employee with 3vGeomatics and we are interested in using open street maps to help process our data, but were unsure of how to interpret the license restrictions.
What we do is take satellite radar data and process it through a rather length chain in order to figure out where the ground is sinking and how quickly areas are sinking. We know that data from water bodies tend to be just noise, and we wanted to use open street maps to determine where large water bodies are and automatically remove any pixels from our data that come from water. The final product that we sell includes maps of the displacement rate of the ground and a geodatabase of points, giving the displacement history of all of the points over time. Given that we are using open street maps to just remove pixels at an early stage of processing, would we be able to just put a statement in our written reports saying that open street maps was used in this masking process, or would we have to make our final displacement database freely available? Thanks for your assistance. If there is any further clarification I can provide, please let me know. Sincerely, Dr. Andy Pon
