Documentation: Articles with mapping of uncertain copyright

This category is designed for use on map scans whose copyright status is uncertain. For all items in this category, the copyright status needs to be ascertained, and this template removed for an out-of-copyright map, replaced by the {{Newmap}} template if it is suitable for that category, or deleted.

This category should as far as possible be kept empty at all times.

SABRE's current understanding of the copyright laws is as follows:

United Kingdom

  • OS and OSNI mapping is subject to Crown Copyright, and 50 full years must elapse before copyright lapses
  • For other mapping published in the United Kingdom, copyright lapses in 70 years, unless there is a named author, in which case copyright lapses 70 years after that person's death

Republic of Ireland

  • OSI mapping prior to 2001 is subject to Government Copyright, and 50 full years must elapse before copyright lapses
  • OSI mapping after 2001 is NOT subject to Government Copyright, and 70 full years must elapse before copyright lapses
  • For other mapping published in the Republic of Ireland, copyright lapses in 70 years, unless there is a named author, in which case copyright lapses 70 years after that person's death
