Hi David,

Definitely looks like Open Street map so it can't hurt to contact them as well as add it to that listing of improperly attributed sites

https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/-33.92006/150.92683 

Cheers - Phil

Hi Talk-AU,

I've just noticed some OSM tiles which are being used without attribution.
https://www.westernsydney.edu.au/future/our-campuses/liverpool-city-campus.html

Here is the same location in OSM:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=Liverpool%2C%20nsw#map=17/-33.92121/150.92614

Is this substantial enough to be worth contacting the website owner?
