A few Freemap enhancements I've made over the past few days, mentioned on the
blog but not on the OSM lists yet:
- SRTM contours now cover most of Scotland as well as England and Wales; this
is possible as my hosting provider have increased the available disc space.
- Stronger links to Wikipedia - you can now click on a POI and link to its
Wikipedia article. This will use the "wikipedia" tag from OSM if available, if
not, it will guess based on the name of the POI. If the latter is the case, the
user is given the opportunity to specify the real Wikipedia article name.
- Footpath descriptions (muddy, steep etc) now link to the "description" tag on
OSM rather than a local description database on Freemap. Similarly, the
description tag on POIs is now displayed.
