 TMR before I make any amendments to the Wiki.

 Its a start and the gtfs data will shortly be okay to use (once the
 attribution goes up).


So, how would we like to approach this? Bus stop import and reconcile with
existing data? Full routes? something else?

I did a gtfs bus stop import for SA via a josm plugin, but managed to
accidentally add a few doubled stops a year ago or so. I would probably
look at a few custom tools to generate .osm files and avoid dupes this time
around, so it can be repeatedly sync'd

Happy to help write up the various import plans.

The Wiki has been updated with the appropriate details.  If anyone has any
questions or amendments please go right ahead and ask.  I've redacted an
actual work address in the headers section of the attribution page as the
original response came from the CIO of the Dept.  The second response, now
in the Wiki was presumably sent by his secretary rather than from the
mailbox and it retained her details in the headers.  If, in redacting her
surname, this breaks the explicit permission then let me know and I'll
request the same email from a mailbox (rather than by a user from that
mailbox).

Wiki page is here (Attribution link is in the 1st para):

Hi again,

There has been a response from TMR and the necessary permission has been
obtained (for their datasets
accessiblehttps://data.qld.gov.au/organizationon the
data.qld.gov.au portal).  I have an administrative query to be cleared by
TMR before I make any amendments to the Wiki.

Its a start and the gtfs data will shortly be okay to use (once the
attribution goes up).  Unfortunately, the respondent has noted, at least
from the position of TMR, that approval would need to be sourced from each
dataset owner (see link above for that list).

In an interesting and somewhat timely twist.  Andrew Mills, the SA Govt CIO
since 2007 commences as the Qld Government CIO in January 2014 so I guess
that means, Watch this space.  I'll be introducing myself to him in the
New Year.

Cheers,

Jason

 Hi everyone,

 My apologies if this has already been posted but I've just sent off a
 request to data.qld.gov.au for explicit permission to incorporate and
 publish their applicable datasets.  I've provided them a link to the SA
 Government response to the same permission request so I hope it is just a
 formality that one of their legal eagles can complete.

 SA Link provided to them:
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Attribution/sa.data.gov.au_explicit_permission

 I'm pretty new to OSM and figured I'd better not waste my effort already
 expended by not having this type of permission supplied.  I know that the
 whole dataset is CC-BY-3.0 AU so I'm not even sure if my request is
 required (but I figure there is no harm in seeking it).

Re: [talk-au] data.qld.gov.au explicit permission request

2013-11-30 Thread Jason Ward
Hi Team (thanks Steve),

I called the 13QGOV number earlier this week and got referred to David from
Transport and Main Roads which is where the online enquiry was manually
referred to by a customer service rep.  They were working on a TMR
departmental response and in the online referral the context or information
that the enquiry was for the whole dataset was lost (To the extent that
David said the TMR response would cover only that departments dataset(s).

Thankfully the phone call and my adding that the request was for everything
in data.qld.gov.au means the TMR guy is including the whole-of-government
person or entity in their response back to me.

He said I'd get a written response the next day (I called on Wednesday).
 Nothing back from them yet but I'll call later next week to give them
plenty of time and if I get the right person that can respond for the whole
dataset rather than just one department (within the whole dataset) I'll get
further traction with the request.

That said, the TMR guy seemed to know and understand the background behind
the request and when I offered to provide more information on the ODbL side
of things he said that had already been discovered/addressed.

I'll keep you in the loop of course and update the Wiki with any outcomes.
