I don’t think they are copyrighted? They are made according to ISO23601

I would expect ISO to be among the last organisations in the world to suggest that copyright should be waived for something or that there should be an open license.

This is actually a really interesting case. On one hand, there is typically a specialized company involved creating those maps. On the other hand, the mall which requested them is, by law, required to create them and to put them at visible places in the mall (thus “publishing” them). According to the European Database Law, they would thus not be eligible for copyright and should be considered public domain!
However, I wouldn’t build a multi-million company on it…
