Hi,



There is a new generation of maps upcoming in the next weeks.

No big deal for you - the old Themes will be 100% compatible with the new maps.



However, the last couple of weeks (weekends ;-) ) I changed the structure of my rendering system.

Now its possible to assign special tagmappings to individual maps with ease, and the simplification-factor too.



Next weeks will see maps with contourlines starting at zoom-level 8 (major/medium) 11 (minor) for maps covering wide empty areas.



Starting with iceland (ready for download) with new contourlines, tags like helipad, shelters, alpine_huts, peaks, volcanos at very low zoom-level and a simplification factor of 3.



There are some additions/changes neccessary for the themes, basicly adding code for contourlines from level 8 on and adjusting the zoom-mins.



The whole posting and a preview of the new iceland.map can be seen here:
