This is a list of online raster
tile servers
based on OpenStreetMap data.
See
Servers/tile
for the names of the physical servers that serve openstreetmap.org's map tiles.
See
Servers/Tile CDN
for description of tile servers maintained by OSM and how one may donate new server to it.
For the URLs below:
{x}
and
{y}
should be replaced with the x and y tile numbers.
{z}
should be replaced with the zoom level.
{s}
should be replaced by a subdomain. The exact values are in the tile server's documentation, but typically it is a single letter
a, b, c
and usually corresponds to Leaflet's
{s}
parameter
. Subdomains are used to help with browser parallel requests per domain limitation (not needed if the webserver uses http/2), so consider switching letters at runtime (similar to JOSM's url template construct
{switch:a,b,c}
).
It is highly recommend to
consult and follow usage policies
of a given server! Respect their terms of use/tile usage policy.
Please don't forget to credit OpenStreetMap. See the
Legal FAQ
for details. Some tile services require their own attribution in addition. Ask their operator for details.
