I’ve contacted the user stijnvermeeren, who got back quickly and was not aware of wrongdoing. I gave him some info on how to proceed in the future, and to not use third party sources, unless there is clearly an approval for use. I read on the wiki page on copyright that the DWG will handle this further, so I will contact them for clean-up.

 

Cheers,

Yes this seems to be stuff that has to be removed.

Hi all,

 

By coincidence I bumped into a user which has sourced data from map.geo.admin.ch and used it to update OSM. As far as I am aware SwissTopo data is not OpenData and under copyright an can therefore not be used

 

https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/stijnvermeeren

 

This person only has a few changesets, and most of them state map.geo.admin.ch as source.

 

Should this data be reverted?

 

Cheers,

dikkeknodel
