Post subject: | Question: How to install OSM API Key? |
Hi. I registered on the thunderforest.com and received the API key. Full URL with it looks like this: Code: https://tile.thunderforest.com/outdoors/{z}/{x}/{y}.png?apikey=myapikeymyapikeymyapikeymyapikey Now I don’t understand how to enter it in TransDEM? I can enter the API key into the appropriate dialog box. But I can't press the OK button in the URL Composition window. I would appreciate for help. |

Well, for OSM you don't need a key. The parameters for OSM map tile access are included in the sample settings. And Open Topo Map, the alternative renderer for OSM, is also part of those settings. If you want to try out some other map tile data source that requires am API key, it has to match the concept that works for Google maps and Microsoft Bing maps. If it does, you should create your settings following the examples for Google and Bing. But I have to admit, I never tried this myself with other providers. |

It seems that API keys in the TransDEM map tile client are only supported for the Bing/Google REST-style interfaces. We can emulate map tiles this way but these APIs are not addressing quad-trees. However, if you want to see contour lines, Open Topo Map has them as well: |
