# Credits, licences and attributions

Kept from the first image rather than the last, as the brief asks. This file
ships next to the page so that whoever puts it online has one place to look
before it goes anywhere.

## Photographs

All fifty-eight frames referenced by `index.html` were supplied with the project
in `raw/images/` and are listed shot-by-shot in `raw/images/SHOTS.md`. Nothing on
this page was fetched from the network, and no image is AI-generated by us.

`site/images/manifest.json` is the machine-readable index: for every slot it
carries the `IMG-xx` id, the block it sits in, the filename, the intrinsic
dimensions, the aspect ratio, the written `alt`, the source class from the
brief's shot list (`Paid` / `Free` / `Base` / `Shoot` / `Lagoon`), the priority,
whether the page degrades gracefully without it, and the full list of JPEG, WebP
and AVIF renditions by name.

**Before this page is published, each frame needs its licence recorded in the
table below.** The source class says where a frame is expected to come from; it
is not a licence.

| Source class | What it means | What has to be done |
|---|---|---|
| `Paid` | Adobe Stock, Getty or similar | Record the licence ID and the licence type. A standard stock licence usually covers a web page; check it covers this one. |
| `Free` | Unsplash, Pexels, Wikimedia | "Free on Unsplash" is not the same as cleared for commercial use, and Wikimedia images usually carry an attribution requirement that has to be honoured somewhere on the site. Record the licence and, where required, the photographer and the licence name in the table below. |
| `Base` | From the charter base — the actual Lagoon 43 | Written permission from the base to use their vessel photographs. |
| `Shoot` | Shot on the trip itself | Ours. If a recognisable person appears, get their say-so before publishing; several of these frames are of people aboard. |
| `Lagoon` | Manufacturer material | Lagoon's own permission for the deck-plan and interior renders. |

| ID | Source class | Photographer / library | Licence | Attribution required | Cleared |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| IMG-01 … IMG-58 | see `manifest.json` | *to record* | *to record* | *to record* | ☐ |

**One derived file.** `images/og-caribbean-antilles.jpg` is a 1200 × 630 crop of
**IMG-01**, made by `tools/build-images.mjs` for the link preview. It is not a
separate photograph and carries no separate licence — whatever clears IMG-01
clears it. It is the frame most people will see first, because it is what a
messenger shows when the URL is pasted, so it is worth clearing first.
`images/apple-touch-icon.png` is rendered from `favicon.svg`, which is drawn
here.

## The one slot that is not merely paperwork

**IMG-11 — the Molinière underwater sculptures.** Jason deCaires Taylor's
installations off Grenada are artworks under copyright, not public-domain
scenery. A photograph of them may need the artist's permission for use on a page
like this one, separately from any licence attaching to the photograph itself.

It is used once, at thumbnail size, in the week 2 card. **Either clear it or drop
it.** The block survives without it: the week 2 card keeps its lead frame and
three other thumbnails, the Molinière sculpture park stays in the dive table as
text, and no layout depends on the picture. This is the single image on the page
that should not be published on the assumption that it is fine.

## Aerial photography

Several islands on this route restrict drone flying and at least one requires a
permit filed in advance. Four frames read as aerial or drone work — IMG-01,
IMG-02, IMG-06 and IMG-46. If any of them is commissioned rather than licensed,
check the rules for that specific island before anyone flies.

## Type

No font files are shipped. The page uses two system stacks:

- **Serif** — `ui-serif, Georgia, "Iowan Old Style", "Palatino Linotype", "Times New Roman", serif`
- **Sans** — `ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif`

Nothing is downloaded at runtime and there is no webfont licence to honour. The
trade-off is recorded in `DECISIONS.md`.

## The chart

`index.html` block C and page 2 of `print.html` carry an inline SVG chart drawn
for this page: 26 island coastline paths, 31 fathom contours, 21 soundings in
metres, a 100-fathom contour, shelf shading, and six separately coloured legs. It
was drawn from published island positions and small-scale bathymetry and then
simplified. **No mapping library, no tiles, no basemap** — there is no third
party to credit and no API key to hold.

It is illustrative and **not for navigation**, which the page says under the
chart in both documents.

## Region data

Region names, counts and the fifteen NomadMania region IDs (1058 … 1096) come
from the **NomadMania API**, checked August 2026, via **wanderfill** —
`github.com/faeton/wanderfill`. The page credits wanderfill by name in block H
and links to it, which is the only outbound link in either document.

## Visa research

The Ukrainian passport column is reproduced from the project's own invitation
document. The EU / EEA / Swiss column was researched for this build; every source
consulted, what it established, and the four positions that could not be
established are listed in `../SOURCES.md`.
