there is no documentation that the above was ever passed on to the “Australian Community” I would like to challenge the above policy in a legal manner

Contributions to OpenStreetMap should be:

  • Truthful - means that you cannot contribute something you have invented.
  • Legal - means that you don’t copy copyrighted data without permission.
  • Verifiable - means that others can go there and see for themselves if your data is correct.
  • Relevant - means that you have to use tags that make clear to others how to re-use the data.

Do not delete data unless you know (or have very strong reason to believe) that it is incorrect.

In South Australia I have made every single Major Traffic Road, Primary Road and Secondary Road a 1 to 1 with the Legal and Official Government Source, The OpenStreetMap Project has full permission to use.
