Summer update of OAM World overview maps available

[MBe57]

To those who are interested, here are the release notes 2020-08/09:

- When generating the new coverage images I noticed a line between the Balkans and Patagonia - the consequence of a script error since 2018, that only got apparent with the OSM data from July. While cleaning up I also included oil wells into the maps (from ZL 10 on, as for Solar etc.).

- Some maps are offered in SQLiteDB format, in addition to MBTiles, for apps that cannot work with MBTiles.

- The melting in the Ant-/Arctic makes the research there ever more important. Their list is updated according to current Wikipedia information, now with the Arctic stations, too.

- In doing so, I extended the map coverage for ZL 7 to 10 - see here. The collapse of memory card prices more than compensates for the increase in map sizes :-)
   
- Settlements, Ferries and Power Plants are based on the 5th of July 2020 OSM database information (unfortunately only with this release 1.1).

- From this data base, hundreds of province capitals have also been added.

- For the first time a world map in PNG format is offered; i.e. all information of all zoom levels is rendered in loss free PNG format. That quality comes at a price: nearly 6 GB for ZL 1 to 10. That makes sense (only) for exports or screenshots from high res. devices.

- All other world maps up to ZL 10 are compressed to JPEG quality 70 for their highest zoom levels. The regional maps with ZL 11+ are coded with JPEG quality 60.

PS: As I saw from my torrent feeding for offline Wikipedias (AARD2: https://github.com/itkach/slob/wiki/Dictionaries and Kiwix: https://wiki.kiwix.org/wiki/Content_in_all_languages/en), there can be downloads from parts of the world that take even a week. Hence I'd like to do a test and offer the overview maps via torrents, too. Not to be used as the standard way for downloads, but rather as a last resort if bandwidth and/or stability of the connection are not sufficient for a direct download.
Before you start the Torrent (see attached), make sure you ONLY select the maps you want in your Torrent App, from the embedded folder (which contains dozens of maps and GBs)!
