Title: Open Aerial & Mapquest OSM tiles watermarked
Post by: KanyonKris on October 02, 2017, 10:32:29 PM

I got an API key for these Mapquest tilesets, but each tile has an obnoxious (very unsubtle) watermark along the bottom. There's a big white oval with "mapquest" in it and copyright text. Frankly it makes these tilesets unusable. I didn't see these watermarks mentioned anywhere as a "feature" of the free plan. Is there something I need to do (other than moving to a paid plan) to remove the watermarks? Is there a way to fix this?

I agree that it is obnoxious.  Unfortunately there isn't much we can do about it (other than complain to mapquest, perhaps, but then the tiles are free). 

I could make the tile size larger (four times the total area) which would reduce the clutter, but the watermark would still be there.  It's a bit of a development cost for me, without much of a change, so I haven't been motivated.  The Color tileset is still pretty good and there is also the hidden GE tiles (message me if you don't know about them).
