Difference between Creative Commons license and Open data

Creative Commons license vs. Open data

Open data is the idea that some data should be freely available to everyone to use and republish as they wish, without restrictions from copyright, patents or other mechanisms of control.

Creative Commons license and Open data have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Copyright, Derivative work, Open content, Open Knowledge International, Public domain, The Open Definition.
