Usage Notes
- 2023-01-16: We have added finer-scale zoom-levels - levels 15-17. In order to use these in windPRO, you need to re-attach the map in windPRO (existing OpenTopoMaps must be removed, then added again).
- For issues and notes about the OSM data (such on how disputed territories are rendered) - please visit our page on OpenStreetMap data.
