Why you need a licence to reuse Intellectual Property

1. Authorised use of OGC Intellectual Property ensures appropriate acknowledgement is made and, in certain cases, fees are charged to provide a return on OGC's investment into the development of best practice.

2. Legitimate reuse of OGC's Intellectual Property requires a licence. Licences issued for the reuse of OGC's Intellectual Property cover either commercial or non-commercial intentions.

3. OGC is committed to protecting our Intellectual Property from unauthorised or unlicensed use.

4. OGC's approach to Intellectual Property management is based on standard legal practices for the protection of Intellectual Property rights and the British Government's policies for accessing information. Please visit:
