Sources

Image credits

Every photograph, piece of music and typeface on this site and in its films has a declared source. Those from Wikimedia Commons and public archives carry licences that permit reuse in exchange for crediting their authors; this page is that credit, and the “Image credits” link under each photograph and film leads here. Those supplied by the district whose source has not been recorded yet are listed here too, with no claim made for them.

Photographs with a recorded licence

Landmarks with no photograph yet

We hold no photograph of these that we can publish here, so they appear as a line drawing made for this site rather than as an image that might misrepresent what you would find on the ground:

  • Mina El Basal Cotton Exchange
  • Gabbari Necropolis
  • El Gomhouria General Hospital
  • Gamal Hammada Hospital
  • El Qabbari General Hospital

The films: their pictures and sound

The district films and the landmark documentaries are cut from freely licensed and public-domain pictures, and the films themselves are shared under CC BY-SA 4.0. The documentaries’ maps are drawn from © OpenStreetMap contributors data (ODbL), with the qisms’ boundaries from Egypt’s statistics agency, CAPMAS, through OCHA’s HDX and geoBoundaries (CC BY 3.0 IGO).

Fonts

The site uses two typefaces, both served from the site itself and both licensed under the SIL Open Font License, version 1.1.

The line drawings

The line drawings used for service icons, and for landmarks without a photograph, were made for this site and belong to the district.
