I guess 10k sqm will be a stronger requirement (almost) everywhere, for
example look at Manhattan, maybe not the densest place on earth, but surely
one of the densers. With roughly 27500 inhabitants per sqkm, on the average
100x100m NYC patch there will only be 275 inhabitants.



I stumbled upon the small maps section.

The following maps are each considered small:

   - The map takes up less than 25% of the displayed window, or
   - The map is of less than 500 device-independent pixels horizontally.

Small maps may have attribution after one interaction. Examples of one
interaction include “one click,” such as an icon or link that opens a
pop-up or new webpage that displays attribution, or a mouseover, swipe,
drag, pinch, etc.

Isn't the reason for not requiring attribution _on the map_ the limited
space? Why is there a condition that makes (easily visible) attribution not
mandatory for extremely large screens? There is a development from several
screens to large screens, and pixel density is generally growing, so the
"max 25% of the displayed window is a map" condition doesn't seem
reasonable. IMHO attribution should always be required

1. on the map
2. in high contrast

(3. in a lower corner, left or right)

I am not sure what "device-independent pixels" means. Is this about points
(i.e. physical, hardware screen pixels divided by the scale)? IMHO we
should require actual, physical pixels, because it is them who determine
whether the attribution string will be readable --- and the requirement
should be tougher. We have seen many examples of easily readable,
unobtrusive attribution on much smaller maps. For example the osm.org
website on 467 pixels wide has room for a scale bar and this text: "©
OpenStreetMap contributors # Make a Donation. Website and API terms" in a
single line.

The actual requirement for "© OpenStreetMap contributors" is around 163
pixels. My suggestion would be to make this half: 250 pixels, maybe even
less like 200 (theoretical) pixels for retina screens (i.e. 400 actual
pixels on retina@2x and 600 actual pixels on retina@3x).
Our goal is not to avoid attribution but to show it when it can reasonably
be done.

+1
