Default Re: Height Maps

Hey dmnt,

i've been looking at the outdoors map a bit closer, since it gives some nice contour lines and by doing so, stumbled upon the vector map.

I'm a bit rusty, but doesn't mean "vector": it's not a "flat" picture, but got all the elements saved as entities? Like a XML file of the map containing location, size, shape and type of all elements (different layers)?
There is a road on XY, there is a built up area on XY shaped Z way and the like so you can style these elements the way you like? (https://www.thunderforest.com/docs/t...t.outdoors-v1/)

If so, shouldn't this make a more or less automatic map creation possible? Way beyond the elevation data?

Since tile request is limited, use it only for the "backend" download creation.
