Personally, CC:BY (attribution) is a really rewarding way to go. You get to learn where your photos end up used, having explicitly granted the permission in the first place.
- rockingclimber 4y agoOne of the project goals is to reduce data friction and maximize adoption. User-generated content about rock climbing routes is available under CC0. We also want to release photos of rock walls as a supplemental dataset. These photos can be very useful for making "climbing topos" [1]. Requiring attribution (BY) will make it an administrative nightmare for us to manage and for downstream users to comply. Should users attribute us or the original authors? I believe for the same reason OpenStreetMap replaced CC BY-SA 2.0 with ODBL [2].
