Mapquest Open Aerial support?

kirkb

Is the mapquest support in GM12 only for OSM map tiles, or for mapquest-hosted Open Aerial tiles too?

I'm talking about this...

I have added that source as a built-in source to v13, so if you have v13 installed it will show up now under the Worldwide Data group. You can manually add it to v12.

I'm using GM11, and when I add a WMS data source with the URL "http://oatile1.mqcdn.com" and click "Get List of Available Data Layers", I get "WMS server GetCapabilities query failed with status code 500".

...same thing if I try "http://oatile1.mqcdn.com/tiles" or "http://oatile1.mqcdn.com/tiles/1.0.0" or "http://oatile1.mqcdn.com/tiles/1.0.0/sat"

That's because it's not a WMS source, it's an OSM tile source, which you can't add in v11. You have to have v12 or later to add an OSM tile source.
