    Notes for map makers

    Can I use the preview tiles in production?

    They cover a fictional region at zoom 0–1 and exist to test styles and viewers. Serve your own tiles for real data and keep this edge for samples.

    What does Verify check?

    Your browser downloads the file again and compares its SHA256 with the release manifest. It detects damaged or mismatched copies; it is not a publisher signature. It needs HTTPS or localhost.

    How long can I cache files?

    Paths change only with a release. Cache tiles and styles for a day or more and compare the manifest when the release number changes.

    Where is this node?

    The region tag is read from the first label of the host name, such as DE or FI. It is a naming convention, not a location measurement.

    Who made these files?

    All sample files are original and dedicated to the public domain. Read the license.
