I think you can contact the map provider and ask them, if they allow Locus to access their online maps!

Dear Mr Mlavec

Thanks for your questions about our products.

In ordet to integrate our products (national maps) in locus, you need to pay a fee.

The fee is defined by the usage intensity. That means, the more the data will be requested, the more you'll have to pay.

Technically, you could use our product swisstopo web access :

http://www.swisstopo.admin.ch/internet/swisstopo/en/home/products/services/web_services/webaccess.html

With swisstopo web access, you can offer an online access to our data with locus. The price is defined by the number of Megapixels our servers delivers your URL.

You cannot offer the possibility to download the data for an offline use. If you want to offert it you will have to pay more (the price pro Megapixels will be higher).

Please have a look at swisstopo web access and let me know if you need more information.

Amount of megapixels   Number of visitors/year*   Price/year**
100'000   ~ 5'000   CHF 2'227.-
500'000   ~ 25'000   CHF 7'560.-
1'000'000   ~ 50'000   CHF 11'727.-

eh ... little bit too expensive I think ...
