Attribution & Licences
Every dataset and image licence behind Just Piste — OpenStreetMap, Open-Meteo, Wikidata and more — with the credit each one requires.
Just Piste is built entirely on data we are licensed to use, credited here exactly as each licence requires.
Map and piste data
Map, piste and lift data is © OpenStreetMap contributors, used under the Open Database Licence — it is attributed on every map and on every table built from it, as the licence requires. OpenSkiMap republishes the same OpenStreetMap data specifically for ski areas and carries the same attribution and licence.
Weather and climate data
Weather forecasts and historical snow records come from Open-Meteo, licensed CC BY 4.0.
Reference data
Country, resort and airport reference facts (elevations, coordinates, opening years) are sourced from Wikidata, dedicated to the public domain under CC0.
Images
Photographs come from Unsplash and Pexels under their own free-to-use licences, from Wikimedia Commons under the licence each file specifies (credited individually below where a licence requires it), or are uploaded directly by an admin under rights we hold or have been granted.
The tables below are generated from the same records the site publishes from — every active dataset with its licence and last successful update, and every published image grouped by source and licence, with an individual author credit for each Wikimedia Commons photo that requires one.
