Ok Thanks for your input. As I see in https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/82519/, Google Maps cannot be embedded in Qt for Android Application at the moment as it seems there are restrictions based on TOC's.
Only OSM/Here Maps is possible using QtLocation module at this stage?

Only OSM/Here Maps is possible. This has less to do with opensource and more to do with attribution requirements, potential requirements to pass through advertised data, data allowances, not mixing map/geo data from different providers and other restrictions the relevant data provider puts on your application. I am afraid those lists are rather long and differ from provider to provider. You won't get around reading the TOC's for those services. Qt doesn't really consume the data and merely passes them on. We only ensure that the map providers TOCs don't prevent us from passing the info on to you. It is your application that has to ultimately comply with the requirements. -- Alex ============================================================================================================================ Disclaimer: This message and the information contained herein is proprietary and confidential and subject to the Tech Mahindra policy statement, you may review the policy at http://www.techmahindra.com/Disclaimer.html externally http://tim.techmahindra.com/tim/disclaimer.html internally within TechMahindra. ============================================================================================================================ _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
