In general you can't assume that any data or document from the government is not copyrighted since contractors often hold joint copyright (and patents, etc.) with the government, and there are more contractors than civil service...

In any case, based on Ira's statement I'm thinking we'll want to reference the NIST definitions and describe how Cloud Imaging fits in...
