Does anyone know where I might obtain (non interactive) maps on the web which are not subject to copyright, and so can be incorporated in other websites? Specifically, I am looking for a map of Belgium and southern Holland.
Alternatively, is there a less expensive software package than Illustrator which can trace an outline from an existing (digital) map? Grateful for any ideas.

I believe you can use Ordnance Survey maps as long as you give the
correct credit. Not sure whether they cover Belgium and Holland, though.

Thanks, but I’m not sure you are right about using OS maps. See

But I think it’s only UK …

You’re right about OS, Paul. Interesting. Pity it’s only UK…
