En meget grundig gennemgang af de betingelser man underlægger sig ved brugen af mere eller mindre gratis kort og data ... En gennemgang af det som står med småt imellem linierne ...

Building Mashups
Let's move on to a "deeper" use of mapping services: building mashups using an API. In that case an additional document or one substantially different from an "end user" ToS may apply.
Google uses a single document for both the Google Maps and Google Earth APIs. At the very top is the date of the document's last update. As of this writing, that update occurred on November 26, 2008. That's a good reminder that ToS agreements change. Google (and many others) include details about the licensee's (that is, the developer's) responsibility regarding ToS changes in the document.

The licensee is responsible for keeping up-to-date. Indeed, this set of terms changed several times within the month of November 2008 alone! Further, this ToS references and requires acceptance of two other documents, which may themselves change: Google's Legal Notices and Privacy Policy. [...]
