Hi Justin, The GIS data is under CC BY 4.0 see here:
https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/file?type=supplementary&id=info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0151586.s002 Hence the reference to this license. According to https://apache.org/legal/resolved.html it is fine to include this in binary form (whether it can be as part of a source release I leave that up to you, it’s a bit of a grey area to me in this case).
