Licence

Trail geometry derives from OpenStreetMap and is therefore ODbL 1.0. That means attribution is required, and if you redistribute this data — or a database derived from it — you must offer it under ODbL too. This data cannot be made proprietary.

The itineraries (/v1/itineraries) are paraphrased from Hong Kong Tourism Board material and are NOT ODbL. Elevation is NASA SRTM, public domain. Basemap tiles come from the HK Lands Department and are not redistributed here — the browser fetches them directly.
