Hi

I'm trying to update one of the tile server URL's and wonder if I've got it right.

The original was :-

MigurskisTerrain = 'http://tile.stamen.com/terrain-background';

I've changed it to this :-

MigurskisTerrain = 'https://tiles.stadiamaps.com/tiles/stamen_terrain-background';

Instead of a map tile all I get is a 401 Invalid returned.

Am I missing something, or are these tiles no longer free to access?

Bruce.

That's a great shame!

Hi Bruce

openfreemap.org does not appear to offer direct access to image tiles the way that TIESlippyMap requires, e.g.

https://tiles.stadiamaps.com/tiles/stamen_terrain/{z}/{x}/{y}{r}.png

Hi Nigel

Thanks for your reply, and yes, stadiamaps are far from free.

All I want to do is update my cache of map tiles for the world, which is quite large but has missing tiles at the more zoomed in levels.

I have discovered what could help me, it's also probably the only free tile map server left in the world!

https://openfreemap.org/quick_start/

I've tried the obvious:-

map:=TIESlippyMap.Create('https://tiles.openfreemap.org/styles/liberty','D:\Maps\FreeTiles');

With no luck - can you have a see if it's possible?

Bruce.

Hi Bruce

I tested https://tiles.stadiamaps.com/tiles/stamen_terrain/ and got an authentication error images, so it looks like you need to pass an API.

Email me your API key if you want me to test that.
