Hello everyone. As you may know, there's a line-up of rollbacks [0][1] [2] that's been determined to have come from incompatible sources. It seems that the main source of misunderstanding is that certain "free" government geodata and maps are assumed to be okay to use in OpenStreetMap as a source.
Among these are data from: NAMRIA, Philippine Statistical Authority, Project NOAH. None of these agencies has signed a waiver, or has given any permission to publish their data in OSM under ODbL. The Department of Education, is the only government agency that permits[3] the use of their data, specifically their dataset released in 2013 to be published in OSM. This is the data source of the OSMaPaaralan project[4]. I'd like to invite the community for inputs and comments on the draft pad for [5] for the FAQ - data sources for OSM contributors in PH /erwin [0]: https://github.com/OSMPH/papercut_fix/issues/67 [1]: https://github.com/OSMPH/papercut_fix/issues/69 [2]: https://github.com/OSMPH/papercut_fix/issues/63 [3]: https://github.com/OSMPH/deped_schools_db/blob/master/data/DepEd_Letter_to_OSM_20132012.pdf [4]: https://osm.org/wiki/Philippines/OSMaPaaralan [5]: https://hackmd.io/yDFExxTeSaW6CwSdoEu2YA?view - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - » email: erwin@ <er...@ngnuity.net>*n**gnu**it**y**.xyz* <http://ngnuity.net/> | gov...@gmail.com » mobile: https://t.me/GOwin » OpenPGP key: 3A93D56B | 5D42 7CCB 8827 9046 1ACB 0B94 63A4 81CE 3A93 D56B
