Hi Folks,

 

After the standard email, the following page has now been fixed and the company 
is reviewing their entire website for correct attribution where OSM data has 
been used.

Cheers - Phil

Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] [Osmf-talk] Attribution guideline status update

 

If you read this https://blog.mapbox.com/19-amazing-maps-from-2019-c2db8f2b6b9f 
you can see several clients of them that are not complying. Example 
https://parallel.co.uk/netherlands/#14.23/52.34361/4.85248/0/40 they credited 
us as OSM  and no notice of what the license is or hyperlink.

 

But still they are "amazing" maps that are not complying with OSM license. See 
how many of those actually do comply

actually this kind of attribution is provided by mapbox’s frameworks like 
mapbox-gl-js and if you (as a developer) do not implement your own attribution 
mechanism you will automatically get (comparatively small) OpenStreetMap 
attribution that hides behind an i while the (bigger) mapbox logo in the left 
corner will stay there at any screen width.

WRT an OpenStreetMap provided textmark/icon: this was proposed by mapbox years 
ago and at the time rejected.

Cheers Martin
