Hi all Reply attached from GCCC!
So what does that mean, please? I'm assuming that if anything is published on their Open Data page: http://data-goldcoast.opendata.arcgis.com/, then we're OK to use it? (The Parks & Recreation one, in particular, would appear to be useful?) Thanks Graeme ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Open Data <[email protected]> Date: 16 March 2017 at 15:18 Subject: RE: Use of City of Gold Coast data for OpenStreetMap project To: Graeme Fitzpatrick <[email protected]>, Open Data < [email protected]> Hi Graeme, Thank you for your enquiry. Data published as Open data is done as a creative commons license model. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ I think this will meet your needs. Regards *Deleted* *From:* Graeme Fitzpatrick [mailto:[email protected]] *Sent:* Monday, 13 March 2017 11:45 AM *To:* Open Data *Subject:* Use of City of Gold Coast data for OpenStreetMap project Hello Thank you for making the http://data-goldcoast.opendata.arcgis.com/; http://www.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/thegoldcoast/park-finder-24304.html; & http://cityplanmaps.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/CityPlan/ datasets available to the public. I am a contributor to the OpenStreetMap project [1], a collaborative open project to create a global geodata set freely usable by anyone [2]. We respect the IP rights of others and I write to ask if we can use your data. At the most simple, I would seek a statement like this: "The Council of the City of Gold Coast has no objections to geodata derived in part from http://data-goldcoast.opendata.arcgis.com/; http://www.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/thegoldcoast/park-finder-24304.html; & http://cityplanmaps.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/CityPlan/ datasets being incorporated into the OpenStreetMap project geodata database and released under a free and open license" [1] I also ask that whatever statement you are prepared to make can be made public for information purposes. Below is a fact sheet. If you would like any more information, I will do my best to help or can ask our project's License Working Group to get in touch with you. Thank you Graeme Fitzpatrick ___________________________ Fact Sheet [1] The OpenStreetMap project currently has over 750,000 registered contributors worldwide. Our main website is http://www.openstreetmap.org [2] We are mandated to make our geodata available in perpetuity under a free and open licence.

We also try to provide a link to this page with any extract of data from our database. However, for reasons of practicality, we do not require end-users to repeat such attribution since it runs into hundreds.

We know from years of experience that there are easy steps we can take to keep ourselves, our families and pets safe this storm season.
