• Grid Globe is free for anyone to use, at home, at school or at work.
• It is provided "as is", without any warranty. We may change it or stop offering it.
• Not for navigation. Coordinates and grids are computed with care, but check them against an official source before relying on one where a mistake could hurt someone.
• Feedback you send is read by us and may be used to improve Grid Globe (see Privacy). Do not send anything you want to keep private.
• The map's pictures and data belong to their publishers and are used under their terms: the view from space and of the polar caps from NASA's Global Imagery Browse Services (opens in a new tab) (public domain); satellite imagery from Sentinel-2 cloudless 2016 (opens in a new tab) by EOX IT Services GmbH (CC BY 4.0 (opens in a new tab); contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data 2016); street-level imagery powered by Esri (opens in a new tab) (World Imagery: Esri, Vantor, GeoEye, Earthstar Geographics, CNES/Airbus DS, USDA, USGS, AeroGRID, IGN and the GIS User Community), and should it stop, in the US, map services and data from the U.S. Geological Survey, National Geospatial Program (opens in a new tab) (public domain); terrain from AWS Terrain Tiles (opens in a new tab) (data from USGS, NOAA, the EU, Kartverket, LINZ, the UK, Austria, Canada, INEGI, Geoscience Australia and ArcticDEM), and should it fail, from Mapterhorn (opens in a new tab) (open data from national and regional agencies, listed there); place and street names from OpenFreeMap (opens in a new tab) and OpenStreetMap (opens in a new tab) contributors (ODbL); place search by OpenStreetMap's Nominatim, and suggestions while typing by komoot's Photon, both from OpenStreetMap's data.
