Reply to "Duplication of map by another measurer"

kevinplucasMember

This Texas measurer clearly sampled a previously published course map – he needs to pay a royalty to the Rodeo Run event organizers. I am of the opinion that the map belongs to the public to view, but its use and ownership belongs exclusively to the event organizers, which the map is named for. Our maps become the property of the event organizers.

Similarly, when an event uses a previously certified course, they must first seek permission for the group who had the course originally certified. If the new event wants to advertise the course as USATF Certified, they can request a new measurement certificate and map be filed in their event’s name.

Curious if this Houston, Texas course map dilemma is for the same Rodeo Run event which it was originally named?
