For example, different rules apply on how to show the copyright notice depending on whether you have created a browsable map, a printed map or a static image. Full details on the requirements can be found in the <a href="https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licence/Attribution_Guidelines">Attribution Guidelines</a>. </p> <p> To make clear that the data is available under the Open Database License, you may link to <a href="/copyright">this copyright page</a>. Alternatively, and as a requirement if you are distributing OSM in a data form, you can name and link directly to the license(s). In media where links are not possible (e.g. printed works), we suggest you direct your readers to openstreetmap.org (perhaps by expanding 'OpenStreetMap' to this full address) and to opendatacommons.org. In this example, the credit appears in the corner of the map. </p> <p><img alt="Example of how to attribute OpenStreetMap on a webpage" class="img-fluid" title="Attribution example" src="/assets/attribution_example-d96d672d32d28857e54caf4d38dde011dfc2be9a3b361de06bd6f71fe5c3d933.png" /></p> <h3>Finding out more</h3> <p> Read more about using our data, and how to credit us, at the <a href="https://osmfoundation.org/Licence">OSMF Licence page</a>. </p> <p> Although OpenStreetMap is open data, we cannot provide a free-of-charge map API for third-parties.
