Dear RECIPIENT NAME,

In recent weeks we have made good progress in adding missing parts of CITY to OpenStreetMap [2]. If you haven't heard of OpenStreetMap before, it is like a WikiPedia of maps, providing a comprehensive, open map of the world [3] for anyone to use.

From your website I have seen that you manage street name information [4]. We would love to contribute it to OpenStreetMap to further complete the data of CITY, but we have questions around the licensing of this data.

What are the conditions under which you make street name data and other geo data available?

If you have any specific questions, I'd be happy to get on the phone with you and explain more.

With best regards,

SENDER NAME
