ProMods needs a legal entity [CLOSED: Negative]

[erkinalp]

Yes, we use it for a long time already, together with SV.

Does it not cause licensing problems? Promods is under a Creative Commons-like license AFAIK.

What do you mean?

erkinalp does mapillary need a license?! "this starts to feel as off topic"

[Vøytek]

But what it has to do with Mapillary or SV usage to see how some areas look like in real life? I have no idea what you're talking about...

[erkinalp]

irrelevant

[ScuL]

That's totally irrelevant, we are not deriving any content.

[erkinalp]

What is what Voeytek does called, then?

[Vøytek]

Looking at photos for inspiration of how a city/area look like?

[erkinalp]

Transformation is considered derivation in IP law and there is no formal "threshold of inspiration" defined, hence it is too risky. I contribute to OSM and they absolutely consider this kind of use significant.
