Topo maps for Italy
« on: August 24, 2010, 10:00:11 AM »
Hi,

I'm looking for a WMS server to generate some topographic maps of Tuscany. Anyone have any good suggestions?

I don't know of any, but have you tried the "Open Cycle Map" tileset?  It has topo lines, roads and even some trails in places.

I was looking for something a little more detailed, is there any way of incorporating the relief view in Google Maps? Or the srtm relief views found on http://www.maps-for-free.com ?

It looks like TF should be able to use those relief maps.  However, the roads and other overlays appear to be from google.  Still looks like a nice map type to have.  I'll see if I can get it added to the next version.

Thanks.
