Apple can only use OSM data pre license change which is very old now, those links are to contributions Apple is making to OSM (similar to the big Microsoft contributions) which are probably there as a way of trying to prevent a Google monopoly, but not indications that Apple is using the data.
- Doctor_Fegg 8y agoThat’s not true. Apple is using and contributing current, ODbL-licensed OSM data.
- Brakenshire 8y agoHow does that work? Do you mean using it behind the scenes? I thought ODbL prevented combinations unless the combined dataset could be released.
- Doctor_Fegg 8y agoIt's not as broad as "combinations". In many circumstances that doesn't apply. The OSMF website has guidelines on what needs to be released and what doesn't.
