However, for those who are not interested in this additional level of details, I also created a version (with "min" added to the map name) that shows only the background maps up to zoom level 7, and above only the settlement and capital names on top of the OAM background. A sort of companion for Wikipedia, which is available offline as well, by Kiwix and Aard2, which I highly recommend. The intent behind all that is to have the essential map information available at your finger tip, fully OFFLINE.

Tobias' Elevate theme is using those tags for rendering.

They can be used by themes to appropriately render and also to select (restrict) the settlement names to be displayed. The population size categories are available in Christian's OAM maps as "popcat" tags.

Both apps are able to handle world maps, using very different mechanisms, however. And there are even apps for iOS that can handle the MBtiles format.Īs usual for OAM, buttons for fast install in Orux and Locus are provided. The world maps are in MBTiles format, which can be used by all major geo apps (some maps are offered as SQLiteDB, too, because OSMand does not handle MBtiles). The overview maps as raster maps are way faster here vector maps have their unique strengths for high level of detail in higher zoom levels.

Please note that these maps are NO vector maps, as those cause massive performance issues at low zoom levels. Spring 2023: Update of OAM base maps and base theme (Rel.
