I suppose not. Also, currently this is very WIP. According to official documents only Spanish citizens will be able to download or redistribute the original shapefiles, one by one, for each of the > 3000 municipalities. Once converted, altered or translated in order to create a derivative work, it may be used freely with a wold-wide license almost without restrictions. I think they feared their website collapsed or something. Yes, it includes street names among many other things. I do not know how are the files they are releasing, but Catastro is the most accurate source in the country (I suppose centimeter-accurate, as all architectural works are projected using it as a base, and it showed even the inner structure of the buildings). It will not mean the end of mapping in Spain, as some info (road information, natural resources, locality names, business info) is handled by different national or local agencies. -- Jynus _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
