[talk-au] No attribution on map

[Stéphane Guillou]

On a similar topic, I have contacted twice Australian Unity about the map on this page, with no response: https://www.australianunity.com.au/herston-quarter (click “download map”)

The local data looks quite different now on OSM but I am familiar with the area as I have contributed there a fair bit, and some footpaths make it obvious that they used OSM without attribution.

How does one escalate a missing attribution when there is no intermediate business like Mapbox?

Cheers

Stéphane Guillou
