Re: [Talk-GB] Monochrome map layers
the standard Carto layer is costly to print in colour and doesn't work very well when printed in black and white as it uses a lot of subtle colour for detail. Hi Mark, The standard Transport map prints quite well in monochrome, and the street names are nicely prominent: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/52.1929/-2.2504=T I've used it in the past for the same purpose - election canvassing. :) cheers, Martin. ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb

[Talk-GB] Monochrome map layers
Does anyone know of a map layer/tile set that is completely monochrome? I want to create some maps specifically for printing, but the standard Carto layer is costly to print in colour and doesn't work very well when printed in black and white as it uses a lot of subtle colour for detail. Specifically, what I want them for is to print off maps of local neighbourhoods and villages for use when delivering leaflets (yes, this is general election related!), so that people can easily see where they need to go and mark off, using a highlighter, the streets they have done. Any suggestions? Mark ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
