Mapnik 3 preparations are now finished. The style now supports Mapnik 3. Most of the work was done on the Mapnik side.
v2.33.0 - 2015-08-14
-
A randomized symbology for forests for
natural=wood
andlanduse=forest
A long time in the works, this improvement has finally landed. The two tags were merged - they are indistinguishable to the data consumer. A randomized symbology was first suggested by SK53 at SOTM-EU 2014, and this feature would not have happened without his extensive research, or imagico's tools for creating an irregular but uniformly distributed and periodic dot pattern
-
Unification of footway/path and rendering surface of them
The mess that is highway=path is well-known, and it is necessary to do some kind of processing as a data consumer. A distinction is now made between paved and unpaved footways.
-
Mapnik 3 preperations
The style is not yet fullly tested with Mapnik 3 and we don't claim to support it, but several bugs were fixed. Most of the work was done on the Mapnik side
-
Power area colour adjusted
v2.32.0 - 2015-07-31

Rendering minor roads and service rail later for mid-zoom clarity
As all residential, unclassified, and service roads in a city became mapped the rendered view became over-crowded, bloblike, and difficult to read.
-
Rendering of Antartic ice sheets from shapefiles
Ice sheets in Antartica are a bit of a special case, and pre-generated shapefiles are now used
-
No longer rendering proposed roads
-
Better place label order
-
meadow/grassland and orchard/vineyard color unification

Render educational area borders later

New POI icons
