Data Attribution

You can show where your data comes from by adding credits to your map. There are two ways to do this:

• Map-level: For general credits that apply to the entire map.
• Data-level: For a specific vector dataset

Warning

Map credits give proper recognition to your data sources. When sharing your map, make sure all required copyright notes and provider names are included.

Add Map Attribution#

To display a common attribution across the entire map, set the attribution on the map itself.

1. Log in to Kumoy and open the target map on the web.

   

2. In the Layer Panel, click the map name and select Edit.

   

3. Fill the attribution field and save.

   

4. Click the i icon at the bottom right of the map canvas to show the attribution you entered.

   

Add Data Attribution#

To credit a single data, add the source info to that dataset.

1. Log in to Kumoy and select the target vector on the web.

2. Click the vector name and select Edit.

   

3. Fill the attribution field and save.

   

4. Click the i icon at the bottom right of the screen to view the attribution you entered.

   

5. When a map that uses this vector is displayed, the same attribution is also shown on the map.

   

Tip

If a vector's attribution isn't appearing on the map, check that its layer is visible in the Layers panel.
