Possible legal issues using Blosm / Google Tiles

1. M by magicalcloud_75 on 7 Jun 2024, edited 9 Jun 2024 #

   Suppose that in my artistic freedom, or for construction purposes I want to use and incorporate models in my BIM environment. Like the Golden Gate Bridge or any other building.

   With Blosm for Blender, it's now super easy to Google 3D Earth data to get this done.

   This raises questions about what is allowed and what is forbideen .

   So my open question is: what is allowed to do with these new powerful possibilities?

   Does Google know how Blosm is being used?

   Hello ! As always with licensing questions the answer seems to be Ask a Lawyer, since the answer will depend upon your exact workflow and the place you live in. Maybe you already saw this conversation https://www.reddit.com/r/blender/comments/1aguys8/blosm_plugin_is_using_google_tiles_api_for/
