>Hi, is it possible to load a image layer under the map on JOSM or another editor? I'd like to map the main elements of a little town where my parents >have been born and raised, but I can't go there right now (so no GPS) and all satellites images are too blurry. I got a map from the government, in >public license, and I'd like to map over it. It has informations of latitude of longitude. So, is it possible? Ive done this before using the SlippyMap plugin. Reprojected the image in Mercator projection and then cut the image into tiles and saved them in a local folder according to OSM naming conventions (this is the trickiest part), then pointed the slippy map plugin tile server information to my local folder (file:///local_folder_path). If zoom level 12 is not appropriate for you map, use the plugin version modified for multiple zoom levels (pity it only allows for zoom levels up to 17 though, which is not enough for very small scale maps).
