Overpass API says results are ODbL-licensed #558

Open 1ec5 opened 1 year ago

1ec5 commented 1 year ago

JSON-formatted results from overpass-api.openhistoricalmap.org include the following boilerplate property, which is misleading:

{
  "osm3s": {
    "timestamp_osm_base": "2023-06-02T00:22:57Z",
    "copyright": "The data included in this document is from www.openstreetmap.org. The data is made available under ODbL."
  }
}

The results come from www.openhistoricalmap.org, not www.openstreetmap.org, and the data is not necessarily under the ODbL.

good catch!

@Rub21 and @batpad is this something that is configurable via OSM Seed settings?

That sentence should read:

The data included in this document is from www.openhistoricalmap.org. Find out more about license and credit at https://www.openhistoricalmap.org/copyright

I hope we don't have to fork Overpass just to change that, so fingers crossed it is changeable via OSM Seed config variables.

That's a hard coded string in Overpass API with no way to tweak it using some config settings.

Solution would be to eventually suggest an upstream modification to make this configurable

Filed upstream as drolbr/Overpass-API#721.

After we upgrade to v0.7.63, we’ll need to follow the instructions in https://github.com/drolbr/Overpass-API/issues/721#issuecomment-2057742068 to customize the copyright notice that the Overpass API returns in every response.
