Aerial imagery in the map
The orthophotos in the map view are embedded live as official WMS/WMTS services of the respective agency — there is no copy of the imagery here. The full list of embedded services including attribution is in the sources window of the map, because it depends on the area shown.
Sentinel-2 mosaics
The Sentinel-2 satellite mosaics are likewise passed through live, here from LGLN geoLabs, processed from Copernicus Sentinel-2 data of ESA — we keep no copy of these either.
