Hi,&nbsp;we&nbsp;are&nbsp;using&nbsp;the&nbsp;ThinkGeo&nbsp;MapSuite&nbsp;with&nbsp;OpenStreetMap.  
  
Because&nbsp;some&nbsp;customers&nbsp;have&nbsp;to&nbsp;configure&nbsp;their&nbsp;proxy&nbsp;servers,&nbsp;we&nbsp;need&nbsp;to&nbsp;know&nbsp;which&nbsp;url&nbsp;is&nbsp;used&nbsp;to&nbsp;get&nbsp;the&nbsp;OpenStreetMap&nbsp;tile&nbsp;data.  
  
  
  
Unfortunally&nbsp;I&nbsp;can’t&nbsp;see&nbsp;any&nbsp;requests&nbsp;in&nbsp;Wireshark.  
  
How&nbsp;can&nbsp;I&nbsp;get&nbsp;or&nbsp;set&nbsp;the&nbsp;OpenStreetMap&nbsp;url&nbsp;for&nbsp;retreiving&nbsp;the&nbsp;map&nbsp;tiles?  
  
  
  
Thanks&nbsp;a&nbsp;lot,  
  
Klaus

Hi&nbsp;Klaus,  
  
  
  
Here&nbsp;is&nbsp;the&nbsp;URL&nbsp;template&nbsp;"{subdomain}.tile.openstreetmap.org/{0}/{1}/{2}.png"&nbsp;used&nbsp;for&nbsp;requesting&nbsp;OSM&nbsp;tile&nbsp;data.&nbsp;Also&nbsp;you&nbsp;can&nbsp;define&nbsp;your&nbsp;own&nbsp;request&nbsp;URL&nbsp;using&nbsp;"CustomServerUris"&nbsp;property.  
  
  
  
Thanks,  
  
Johnny
