If by 'Open' you mean the BC government geo-store is 'open' for map/gis data sales business. Then, yes it's open.
But otherwise no. It's just a pritty map that GeoBC has paid Google to put onto Googleearth.. .. to look at, but not touch.... lol. Our hopes is that with a new government soon, their will be a new minister of in charge of geo-data sales, and they will be 'open' to ccBY sharing. crossing fingers, cheers, sam On 2/24/11, Kevin Michael Smith <[email protected]> wrote: > I found a WMS (http://openmaps.gov.bc.ca/imagex/ecw_wms.dll?) run by the > BC government that has some nice, if slightly dated, photo mosaics of > areas not covered by the high res Bing photos (Layer > REGIONAL_MOSAICS_NC_NORTHCOWICHAN_C10CM_UTM10_2002_2007 particularly > interests me) but I wasn't able to find any licensing information.
