Personally I'd rather have them within mappero. It is after all, quite a mature piece of software and has plenty of other maps in it; most notably open street map.
So, dear Orava, would you be willing to share the secrets of how you tease the maps out of paikkatietoikkuna

Even free services and APIs (e.g. some Google APIs) require registration to use the API. Why? To keep some control on who uses the service and terminate the service for that user if it's used against the rules.
Orava I'd suggest you to check with Paikkatietoikkuna about the license before continuing further.

Great app for finish hunters
- Kudos to Orava
Aerial maps is great new feature - I wish to get layout showing roads and trails on top of aerial maps - some day. (I don't know whetter this information is available in suitable format: Paikkatietoikkuna.fi -> Liikenneverkot -> Digiroad, Liikenneverkko)
Question related landmarks: How can I remove one (selected) landmark? My proposal is that tapping landmark would open menu telling distance to landmark and possibility to navigate or remove it.
Bug related adding name or description for landmarks is very annoying. Addition of those informations I would like to have some kind of categories for landmarks and possibility hide categories temporarily.

Great work getting us the maps from paikkatietoikkuna!
Personally I'd rather have them within mappero. It is after all, quite a mature piece of software and has plenty of other maps in it; most notably open street map.
So, dear Orava, would you be willing to share the secrets of how you tease the maps out of paikkatietoikkuna
And perhaps tell a bit about the license:
