floor plans copyright

0

Hi I just wanted to know if someone can tell me if there might be copyright problems if you use self taken pictures of floor plans). Especially if there is no copyright notice. I've read about using floor plans for indoor mapping in the Wiki and this question came to my mind.

thanks in advance Hedaja

Especially in Germany, when there is no copyright notice, it is NOT a sign that it is without copyright!

You need the permission of the so called Urheber (creator).
