Data sources and credits
Everything on the map is built on open data. This page lists where each part comes from, under which licence, and what we changed. The credit lines are the ones the licences ask for. The map covers Valencia, Camp de Túria, Sagunto, l'Horta Sud and Puçol. The municipal tree inventory and the LiDAR tree measurements cover the city of Valencia only; in the other municipalities, trees come from OpenStreetMap.
