| Licence terms | ODbL 1.0, © OpenStreetMap contributors: https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright, repeated in every Overpass response (osm3s.copyright). Published derived databases must carry ODbL and credit OpenStreetMap. Checked 2026-10-24. DE: none of the four transmission operators (50Hertz, Amprion, TenneT, TransnetBW) publishes a substation list with positions under an open licence (checked 2026-10-24: maps and grid-plan PDFs only), so OSM is the DE source too |
