Each map layer has the different data sources. Those are described below. If you have your own data and you need to process them for the web or mobile, try the MapTiler platform.
Our maps and services are powered by OpenStreetMap data - built by a community of mappers that contribute and maintain data about roads, trails, cafés, railway stations, and much more, all over the world.
OpenStreetMap is open data, licensed under the Open Data Commons Open Database License (ODbL) by the OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF).
We regularly (typically weekly) update the maps with fresh modifications from OpenStreetMap.
We are using the OpenMapTiles open-source project, which we originally created and continue to actively develop.
According to the OpenMapTiles license, all products or services using maps derived from OpenMapTiles schema must visibly credit "OpenMapTiles.org" or reference "OpenMapTiles" with a link to http://openmaptiles.org/. For MapTiler.com hosting we have a written legal permission from MapTiler AG to replace the visible credit with MapTiler and a link to this page.
Our maps must always visibly show attributtion:

In some cases we serve map tiles or geospatial services derived from opendata released by local government bodies.

MapTiler Satellite and derivates maps contain datasets from:
The map layer is a result of the team work of MapTiler AG and MapTiler s.r.o. We collected the imagery, did a color adjustment, sharpening, and tile rendering with the MapTiler Engine software.
The original (almost) cloudless map is produced by our partner EOX IT Services GmbH who did the processing of the raw global ESA Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite imagery collected during the summer 2016/2017 and produced the Sentinel-2 cloudless map.
