I was just wondering if anyone could give me a heads up and any information on where I stand with releasing an Application that uses the OSMdroid open source mapping system. What are the terms of the licensing etc. Should I set up my own map server instead of using the osmdroid mapping server?
Thanks
There is no "osmdroid mapping server". The server used by osmdroid depends on the tile provider given by your specific configuration. This can be the official OSM tile servers, for example. Each tile provider has different terms of use.
The usage policy of the official OSM tile servers is rather strict because they runs on donated resources. There are other tile providers of which some have less strict usage policies. Alternatively you can set up your own tile server or use a paid-for tile server.
