Attributions
The data, models, software and fonts the BirunIQ platform and this website are built on, and the credit each one asks for.
Last reviewed: October 22, 2026
The BirunIQ platform, offered by Bitruvius, Inc., is built on open data, open models and open-source software. We thank their authors. This page summarises them and the credit their licences require. In the platform itself, map credits are shown on the map wherever a layer is displayed, and the complete licence texts ship with the software (THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.txt in the web application and the model licence texts in the provenance manifest). Product screenshots on our websites show data from the sources below.

Every model the platform runs is recorded in a provenance manifest with its source, version, weight hashes, licence text and fetch date. Data a model synthesised, rather than observed, is marked as generated in the platform’s lineage records, and the mark carries to everything derived from it.
