What's Changed in Maps for the IIAB 7.2 Release?
- Variables have new meanings:
osm_vector_maps_install
in/etc/iiab/local_vars.yml
means install the map program (about 40MB).osm_vector_maps_enabled
in/etc/iiab/local_vars.yml
is not currently in use [why if so?].osm_vector_maps_installed
in/etc/iiab/iiab_state.yml
means it's been installed [no longer means "install a functioning world map to zoom 10 (about 2.8GB)" right?].
- There is a new installer page (http://box/osm-vector-maps/installer/) separate from the Admin Console, with installs regions and downloads higher resolution satellite imagery from zoom 11 [10?] to zoom 13 (16 times [5x5 km to 5x5 m pixels implies 1000X ?] the resolution provided by zoom 10 [9?]).
- Multiple vector OpenStreetMap regions may be installed, and viewed on the same map.
- Multiple regions of satellite improvements can be added to the same map.
- The region size for satellite downloads can be adjusted to 100x100 km, 300x300 km, or 1000x1000 km around a selected map point.
- More recent OSM data is used in the vector tiles (2017 => 2019) [is this included in all 12 Map Packs?].
- Increase the base install (world view) from zoom 9 to 10, so that city search is successful more of the time [is this included in all 12 Map Packs?].
- There is a new drag-and-drop feature which permits the student to add descriptions and pictures about local points of interest, and then save and restore them using their local browser [how does one do this?].
