[Osmf-talk] Tile Usage Policy, serving the public and utilising our resources

[john whelan]

Silly question but if a commercial operation wants to use OSM data in a web
site do we document anywhere what options are available to them?

Google makes it easy and for a static web page just a screenshot of
relevant bit of the map would work.

Yes I understand we'd prefer them not to eat up masses of bandwidth but for
a none technical manager I think we should document how to make use of OSM
data.

Thanks

John
