Dear American OSM contributors, It's my first post on this ML, since I only contribute in Europe so far.
As I looked for public data regarding Trans-atlantic submarine fiber cables to map upcoming Dunant cable (owned by Google, see the post on talk@), I found out the Marine Cadastre webpage https://marinecadastre.gov/data/ Two interesting datasets are provided there https://inport.nmfs.noaa.gov/inport/item/48900 (NASCA, restricted download) https://inport.nmfs.noaa.gov/inport/item/48901 (NOAA) Beside the first dataset, NASCA provides nice pdf maps: https://www.n-a-s-c-a.org/cable-maps/ This would be technically possible to improve submarine cable mapping on OSM as several of them already exists but aren't described accurately https://openinframap.org/#5.7/41.023/-63.91 As I'm not knowledgable about licence and copyright usage of those datasets, does someone ever get in touch with MarineCadastre, NOAA or NASCA to use their publications? I'll be happy to help if it's possible to use them in OSM. Same question applies for hydrokinetic and power projects, oil pipelines and wells... All the best, enjoy your weekend François https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Fanfouer
