While OpenUniverse itself is released under the GPL, its data catalogue
are under different licenses as follows.
Star catalogue:
Star catalog derived from the Hipparcos and Tycho star catalogs.
These catalogs are in the public domain, and can be obtained from
http://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/viz-bin/Cat?I/239
Changes made to the raw catalog include stripping out certain data
fields, reformatting, and manual matching up common and genetive
star names. The modified catalog is (C) Jason Harris, 2003, and is
licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL):
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html
Further changes have been made with a custom script to derive a
file from this raw catalogue that is written under OpenUniverse's
star format. This changes were made by Javier Fernandez-Sanguino.
The Hipparcos data is in the public domain and may be used
by anyone. We do request however that use of the catalogue data
is acknowledged. Something similar to "This application
makes use of the Hipparcos and Tycho catalogues (ESA, 1997)"
could be appropriate, and a link to the ESA Hipparcos web pages
(http://sci.esa.int/hipparcos) would also be appreciated.
