Archive Seal

The open TLA-185 grammar stays free to cite. A licensed Archive package and an active Seal are separate commercial instruments from The Landscape Archive Pty Ltd — used when a brief requires Landscape Archive–attested deliverables.

Authenticity checks are not public. Landscape Archive administrators verify whether a seal mark or organisation entitlement is registry-backed. This Foundation page does not run live seal checks and does not call Archive verify APIs. It is not Foundation Approved, not a government approval, and not the paused Foundation Evidence Checker. See Foundation Approved vs Archive Seal for the counsel-ready split.

For RFQs: require a licensed package from an organisation on the authorised directory, and an Archive Seal when the brief asks for one. Seals renew on a period basis; expired seals are not current. Commercial Archive may expose public authenticity endpoints on landscapearchive.com.au; this Foundation page still does not proxy or run those checks.

Open grammar vs licensed Seal

  • Open specification — field dictionary and conformance rules under CC BY-NC-ND 4.0; free to read and cite.
  • Licensed Archive package — commercial delivery from an authorised organisation when a brief requires Landscape Archive–attested output.
  • Archive Seal — renewable org-level attestation mark / manifest for sealed packs; purchase and directory listing live on the Archive site.
  • Verification — commercial Seal authenticity is registry-backed on Archive (admin tools + public authenticity APIs on landscapearchive.com.au where published). That is separate from the open TLA-185 dictionary integrity registry (SHA-256 of the field grammar JSON).
