Re: [Talk-GB] Possible Unattributed Map on Labrokes Website
I think it's Blipstar - a UK company who provide store locator tools Looking at their example map https://blipstar.com/blipstarplus/examples it seems to be the default to hide the attribution (via CSS media query) on narrower window widths Tim On Fri, 8 Feb 2019 at 13:31, Robert Whittaker (OSM lists) wrote: > > On Fri, 8 Feb 2019 at 09:43, Steve Pointer wrote: > > >Not sure if this is the right place to ask but is there anyone who can > > >look at https://thegrid.ladbrokes.com/en/shoplocator to see if they are > > >using OpenStreetmap data without proper attribution? > > > > In Firefox if you right click on the map -> This Frame -> Show only this > > frame > > > > then the map has OSM tag at the bottom. > > Nice spot.

Nice spot. The frame is showing https://viewer.blipstar.com/map?uid=2470030&value=10&gui=true&type=nearest&width=auto&tag=&autolocate=true&search=NW1 . If you vary the width of the browser window it seems that the attribution at the bottom disappears if it's narrower than some critical value. Also, the attribution that is shown isn't technically compliant -- see https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright . It appears the map etc is being provided as a service by http://www.blipstar.com/ using a Mapbox map. I suspect it's one of those two that we really need to convince to do better with the attribution. Did I remember reading somewhere else that it was a known issue / bone of contention that Mapbox were providing a service with unattributed or incorrectly attributed maps to their clients?

In Firefox if you right click on the map -> This Frame -> Show only this frame then the map has OSM tag at the bottom.
