- Does this mean that MQ Open tiles will need to be removed from osm.org?
- MQ Open tiles on open.mapquest.com are still pointing at an old style.
Will this be changing?
- Will MQ be updating the various references they've added on the OSM
wiki which contain information on how to use MQ Open tiles?

MapQuest is moving to a 100% cloud solution - the new infrastructure
dictates that all tile access will require a key. Details on how to
get keys, SDKs and general migration information is below:
On Monday, July 11, 2016, our direct tile access to MapQuest legacy
maps will be discontinued. After Monday, July 11, 2016, we’ll require
those using our direct tiles access to sign up for a plan on the
Developer Network and transition to one of our four mapping solutions:
*
MapQuest plugin for Leaflet
*
iOS mobile SDK
*
Android mobile SDK
*
Static map API
Get new keys and SDKs here: https://developer.mapquest.com/
FAQ and details are below. If you have additional questions about
these changes, please email us at [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>or contact us via our forum
(URL below).
*FAQ:*
If I don’t sign up for a new AppKey, will my service be shut off?
If you’re currently getting direct tile access, your service will be
shut off beginning Monday, July 11, 2016. We encourage you to sign up
for a plan to access an AppKey and access our various mapping solutions.
What are the differences between the plans you offer?
The available plans include: Free, Basic, Plus, Business, Business
Enhanced, Business Plus, and Business Plus Enhanced. Please see our
plans page for pricing and additional information. We also offer an
Enterprise-level plan that includes additional benefits and
flexibility. If you are interested in an Enterprise-level plan, please
contact us to discuss licensing options.
How are transactions counted within your mapping solutions?
A map transaction is generally generated under the following
circumstances:
*
The initial load of the map when using SDKs such as the JavaScript
Maps API, Leaflet Plugins, Mobile SDKS, or legacy Flash Maps API
*
There is a change in zoom level
*
There is a change in map type, for instance, a change from the
default map to satellite imagery
*
The user pans and causes more than 40% of the displayed map to
change (legacy Flash Maps API only).
*
A request is made to the Static Map API Web Service.
What if I need help with the transition to a new mapping solution?
Please visit the forums on our Developer Network if you have questions
about transitioning from direct tile access to Leaflet, Mobile SDK or
Static Map API.
