Interesting. . . Nothing saying they are using OSM in the mapbox blog post nor do I see acknowledgement of OSM on the Rand McNally slippery map or surrounding frame on the map page itself. But zooming into areas that I've edited on OSM I can definitely tell that it is OSM data they are using

Haven't found the attribution yet, but Hans is right. In my county, I can clearly see that the buildings shown on the RMcN map match ones in OSM, including neighborhoods where I drew some houses but skipped others because the imagery isn't clear enough. -jack On November 22, 2014 9:46:08 PM

On the help page there is a link to http://www.randmcnally.com/legal/doc/tripmaker-attribution http://www.randmcnally.com/legal/doc/tripmaker-attribution, which has attribution for OpenStreetMap. However, I can't actually get to that page from the Help window: there is some javascript

The attribution I can find is on http://www.randmcnally.com/legal/doc/tripmaker-attribution, which is linked from the Help popup from the TripMaker site. For OSM it links to https://www.mapbox.com/about/maps/ which seems to have more specific data about OSM licensing. On Sat, Nov 22, 2014 at

I've also seen OSM attributed in the legal disclaimer on printed Tulsa and Oklahoma highway maps. Next time I'm at QuikTrip I might see about photographing that if I can. Anybody know if Rand McNally is tithing us or just using our work? On Sat, Nov 22, 2014 at 8:46 PM, Richard Welty

Not sure why the website can't use the same contribution links as google maps does with its 4 different map sources on the bottom right of their map. Since rand shows on their attribution page that they get their map data from 4 different sources also. Regards, Hans Send me the email Clifford

It’s OSM. Looking at edits I made I found an error on the map. I then went to OSM and the error was there so I fixed it. I then reloaded Rand McNally and it was fixed. Dave Mansfield ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org

Yes, the map will show updated OSM data within minutes, like all of Mapbox's maps that are based on their Mapbox Streets vector data tiles. https://www.mapbox.com/blog/vector-tiles/ https://www.mapbox.com/blog/vector-tiles/ Alan On Nov 22, 2014, at 7:51 PM, Clifford Snow
