Author's Comment This is interesting, i made this really long back using zone maps from the old bombay corporation website. as far as i remember i used google maps to find the location of the ports, airports, bus stands, railstations and also to classify the roads, its been more of a reference rather than a source. i'll try to get the link for the bombay maps i used--PlaneMad 07:17, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep Information cannot be copyrighted. The locations of airports, ports, bus stations, lakes and so on are not the creative works of Google. Google cannot copyright the shape of a geographic feature as original authorship. They can however, copyright the map styles, (or inaccuracies!). Nichalp (talk) 09:33, 29 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep Image is not a print-screen-copy-paste of google map. Information of city map is free for all to use. If information was to be copyright violated, entire WP project would have to deleted. WP only uses information and does not allow copy-paste of it. Same here. No violations. --gppande (talk) 20:16, 29 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep I don't think this is a copy-paste of google maps. So, no question of copyright violation. Creator of maps can always check the details of a city map against google maps or similar, that does not violate anything.--GDibyendu (talk) 17:11, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
