    Since at least 1 person asked, others probably wondered about it, so ... No, I have not violated any copyright laws.

    Ordinarily, I would never even have seen a map making request, but this particular request initially appeared in the wrong forum, so I saw it. Unlike most requests, this was for an actual building rather than something from fantasy. I happened to remember seeing measured survey drawings for a small church made by the National Parks Service and available as TIFF files through the Library of Congress. Since it was no real effort to cut and paste tiff files together into a usable battle map, I did so.

    The original drawings were created as part of a program called HABS (Historic American Building Survey) and ALL HABS "measured drawings" are in the Public Domain. It says so on the HABS web-site 'fair use' page.

    Thanks for being understanding - we try and take a pretty firm line here, as posts containing copyright infringement could get the site in hot water.
