The footer mentions OpenStreetMap.
- kazkada 9y agoGenerated PNG does not mention OpenStreetMap. It seems that it violates OpenStreetMap requirements laid in http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright/en http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright/en: "How to credit OpenStreetMap We require that you use the credit “© OpenStreetMap contributors”."
- rmc 9y agoThere's also slightly more requirements than that. The credit must be placed so a reasonable user will see it. This is important if you have (say) an app. You cannot just bury the credit deep in the settings screen.
- rmc 9y agoThe OSM licence (the ODbL 1.0[1]) requires this of the attribution: > You must include a notice associated with > the Produced Work reasonably calculated to make any Person that uses, > views, accesses, interacts with, or is otherwise exposed to the Produced > Work aware that Content was obtained from the Database, ... and that it > is available under this License. i.e. the notice must be such that regular people using this site will know about this.
