The Open Database License (ODbL) is a "Share Alike" license agreement intended to allow users to freely share, modify, and use a database while maintaining this same freedom for others.[1]

ODbL is published by Open Data Commons, part of the Open Knowledge Foundation.[2]

The OpenStreetMap (OSM) project is presently being relicensed from a Creative Commons license to ODbL.
