Hi, all.
You'll have seen an article in "WeeklyOSM 758", from the Heidelberg
Institute for Geoinformation Technology (HeiGIT):
https://heigit.org/osm-completeness-with-overture-maps-data/
The article explained how relatively simply, OSM 'completeness' can be
assessed using 'open and accessible' maps from the Overture Maps
Foundation. I'm wondering how this information can be used to improve
the quality of OSM coverage, in a prioritised (not automated) workflow.
For example, could reports be run for an area(/s) and the results used
to create new tasks (MapRoulette)?
What does anyone think?
Arr just found this in their FAQ
"Generally, Overture data is licensed under the Community Database
License Agreement – Permissive v2 (CDLA) unless derived from a source
that requires publishing under a different license, such as data derived
from OpenStreetMap, that constitutes a “Derivative Database” (as defined
under ODbL v1.0), which will be licensed under ODbL v1.0.
Overture considers (A) any maps or outcomes obtained by computational
analysis that are created using Overture data licensed under CDLA
Permissive v 2.0, or (B) the supplementing of (1) a Data Recipient’s
content or (2) a third-party’s data – in either case, obtained through
computational analysis – with CDLA Permissive v.2-licensed data from
Overture, to be “Results” and according to Section 3, not subject to the
requirement to provide the text of the license."
So how do we tell what data is what license?
And I don't think OSM can use CDLA as it is probably not compatible
with ODbL
