Newington

Posted by Senor Bradford on 3 June 2020 in English.

Most of Newington doesn’t have any buildings added to the map. Points along the Berlin Turnpike don’t have address attached to them. These could be quickly adjusted using maps and GIS sources of Hartford county.

That statement needs to be heavily modified: almost all modern maps can NOT be used to update the OSM map. That is due to the copyrights deployed within modern maps.

This is the relevant statement from the OSM Copyright Statement:

OSM contributors are reminded never to add data from any copyrighted sources (e.g. Google Maps or printed maps) without explicit permission from the copyright holders.
