[Osmf-talk] Mapbox Attribution

[Mikel Maron]

While I'm sure it is exciting to have someone from a Mapbox perspective responding here on the list, this is getting beyond what I'm prepared to talk about. The original post in this thread addressed a situation that's in clear present violation of the policy posted on Mapbox docs. For what the future holds with the adopted guidelines, etc, there's nothing specific to report at this moment.

I'm unhappy to share the view of Peter and Mateusz.

Not only it's "common practice" from MapBox users not to show OSM attribution (among others) but even worse on the official map of MapBox (link given by Mateusz, https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/mapbox/streets-v9.html?title=true&access_token=pk.e...), the attribution is as follow:


© Mapbox © OpenStreetMap Improve this map




The third link send the user to https://apps.mapbox.com/feedback/ and is written as follow:

How can we improve the map?

All the 6 links on this page refer to mapbox pages, and we have no clue then under which license the data will be added, not even where (for satellite imagery maybe to Maxar).




That is not correct. A trapping system, should we start referring to GAFAMM?

Maybe at the end the OSM database is improved but at least it refrains people to contribute directly.





I'm not saying Facebook is better: what about data compatible with OSM like phone numbers or opening hours? Those are presented close to OSM map but are not shared (as far as I know) in ODbL.

Is that correct?




The idea behind ODbL is to ease data convergence: we all improve the data and we all benefit from the improvements.




Here it moves in GM direction: you help G or M or F to improve their maps...

Not exactly what I expect when I'm contributing to OSM.
