<ul>
<li>OpenLayers: Served from a local library file (lib/ol.js & lib/ol.css), provided by OpenLayers. We use this library when you set your block to use OpenLayers (default).

<li>OpenStreetMap: When you select the OpenLayers engine, a default map tile server is used, which is provided by <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">OpenStreetMap</a>.

<li>Google Maps API: If you decide to use <a href="https://developers.google.com/maps" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Maps</a> as your map engine, we will include the Google Maps API as a 3rd party service provider that we rely on to render your maps. In this case, admin map previews are still rendered by OpenLayers and OpenStreetMap.</li>
