Is the map data federated?
It's a central server i believe.
Well, it's dumb data, so we don't speak of federation (which happens between services), but basically yes.
Anyone can download the data and the TL;DR for your right to using the data is:
As a result, there are also many servers which mirror the data, i.e. provide a separate copy you can download, which is effectively like federation.
