Not really. Most tile numbers are referenced from 0 degrees latitude, 0 degrees longitude. King County's tile numbers are referenced from some random point near King County. I could technically add another option to specify the reference point, but since King County is the only website (that I know of) to use such a reference point, it wouldn't make sense from a general standpoint. It would be useless for >99.99% of use cases.

If you feel strongly about it, feel free to modify the source code and make a .deb that understands King County's peculiarities. Or, if enough people care about it, then someone else will do so. That's the power of open source, after all.

Thanks for reply. I was not asking to do that for me. I was just asking if it is done already. From priorities point of view, sure, we need other things first. Personally, I want to return google terrain.

I both understand your reluctance to fight that decision, and wish that you would try. Is there some way to get a key for your app that would allow it to have automated access? Is there a bugzilla-style bugtracker that you could submit this to? Are there no strings to pull, no ears to bend?

And as I said, I understand your reluctance to fight this, so if you say "No," it will make me sad, not angry.

Just a note: Google Satellite is working alright over here.

google maps in Hebrew still works. Only need to increase version again from 2.89 to 2.92, so url is

http://mt.google.com/mt?v=w2.92&hl=iw&x=%d&y=%d&zoom=%d

Also for google satellite this URL appears to work:

Has anyone gotten the nexrad weather radar to work recently? I've tried it as both a layer and a map repo and neither work. As a repo it reports back "20 maps failed to download" and I never see anything. Neither were setup to have a cache db.

Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
 
As I have already mentioned earlier in this thread, the largest newspaper of Costa Rica has a much more detailed map of the country than the regular Google street map, even though this map seems to be based on Google maps:
http://lnmapas.nacion.co.cr/maps/index.shtml

Sometimes a real good map would be a blessing in this country, where street signs are between rare and no existent.

I have tried to tinker with that map to use it in MaemoMapper, but to no avail. I simply do not know enough about that stuff. I wonder if one of the experts in this matter could have a look on the source of that maps in order to find out if there is a usable repository available.

I could, of course, ask the people at the newspaper. But I am pretty sure that they know even less about MM than I do.

Google Maps Layer for Webcams
 
Google Maps added a layer that shows webcams all over the world.
http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/200...ogle-maps.html

Any idea how to get this layer into Maemo Mapper?

Is google satellite (from above post) repository broken, or is it just me?
