Hi,
I am wondering if I can use this sign and others for a draft map
and for
streetnames:

In my opinion Panoramafreiheit (freedom of panorama) applies.
The map is placed in public and it is painted directly on the metal
plate, so it is permanent.
The problem may be, that it is not my intention to reproduce this map
exactly, which is allowed, but to create another map.
My completely non-lawyer opinion is thus: If the government puts up
signs that have the name of a street on them (a.k.a. street signs)
then we take it for granted that we can use them. So if the
government puts up signs that have the names of 10 streets on them,
like your example does, we can obviuosly use them as well.
Bye
Frederik
