Licence/Licence and Legal FAQ: Difference between revisions

There are strict rules about what can and cannot be imported into the OSM map and these rules depend upon the source of ownership and license terms relating to such data. In all cases, any data you contribute should improve the OSM map and not degrade it (just because you can contribute it doesn’t necessarily mean you should!). You need to consult with the OpenStreetMap community on this. [[https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import| See the Import Wiki]].

Where it is allowed to contribute data, the OpenStreetMap Community provides further guidelines on how to do the import here: [[https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines| Import Guideline]]
