This element ‘Other constraints’ contains all the other constraints (including restrictions to accessibility security restrictions) and requirements for access to, and use of, the dataset.

When there are no constraints, one should adopt the text “no limitation on public access”. Adopting at least one of the three elements is mandatory Legal restrictions to accessibility, other constraints, security restrictions.

Geonovum recommends the use of geo shared license based on creative commons, to indicate the terms of license. The geo shared license is included in the element ‘Other constraints’.


Example; No limitation to public access
