whaoo ! That shows you've gone far in tile scrapers activity analyse and it soon logical about "normal" human behavior.

I had a private email from someone from the list who tried to search google for the strange "83F78CDD-FB29-E011-854C-00237DE2DB9E" string and found the culprit. That's a windows phone apps claiming to provide "off live browsing" (wich I suppose means tile scraping ;-) ) for a lot of map providers among which mine is listed > > Then comes (or alike): > > "Dalvik/1.2.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.2.2; LS670 Build/FRG83G)" > > > > The first looks fake, the second does not ring a bell except that it's > likely something on Android. But a per zoom level limit should help. After diging, il looks like a few android apps do implement tile scraping while other do implement only human browsing. I found that mytrails as my renderer listed and also has a bulk scraping menu > That seems rather random - I am having the most trouble with an Android app. You are right, I just found one ;-) -- sly qui suis-je : http://sly.letuffe.org _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
