The NASA SRTM filled dataset is PD licensed. No issue.
The 3rd party void filled SRTM is often not PD licensed. Some sets are
explicitly non-commercial.


This is the case with the map that Martin mentioned, it uses the noncommercial
CGIAR dataset and thus cannot make combined tiles.



There is also a void filled SRTM dataset at: http://www.glcf.umd.edu/data/srtm/ 
which apparently has no noncommercial restriction.

[OSM-legal-talk] list of user IDs having accepted the contributor terms

2010-10-09 Thread Matt Amos
as part of the voluntary relicensing phase of the move to ODbL,
existing contributors have had the ability to voluntarily accept the
contributor terms. to help the community assess the impact of the
relicensing it was planned to make the information about which
accounts have agreed available. this will help with the evaluation of
the process and analysis of any consequent data loss, should the
switch be made. at the last LWG meeting, having been put to the board
for approval, it was decided to make this available [1], and i'm
pleased to announce that this list is now up [2] and being regularly
refreshed from the database every hour.

i look forward to seeing the new analyses, visualisations and tools
that can be built using this data.

cheers,

matt
