Introduction
OpenTopoMap is a free topographic map - generated using OpenStreetMap data and SRTM elevation data. The legend for the topographic is based on a style that matches the official German topographic maps, i.e. it has a style that i easy to read through a high-contrast and easy-to-read signatures. The map has a global coverage. Please visit the OpenTopoMap project homepage (https://opentopomap.org) in order to learn more.

Samples of two selected places in Denmark and Austria are shown in the figure below.
