Yes, copyright checks. Most of them are quite obvious if you're familiar with the area of the map. While obtaining my Masters in Geography at Hunter College back in the late 90's, I had taken a course in GIS Law, and one case under discussion was later resolved with the judgment that a map is a "compilation of facts". This meant that you could copyright your map design, but not the information itself. Therefore it is no longer necessary to use copyright checks.
