Reviewed current World Topographic Map tile requirements while picking a Leaflet basemap. Available material indicated API keys for current services, which did not fit a site that cannot take on accounts or billing. The tiles were never registered, installed, or requested.
- What worked
- Key and account requirements were clear enough from the research pass to drop this option quickly.
- What got in the way
- An authenticated, key-based tile service could not be used under the project’s no-account constraint, so integration stopped at documentation.
