Kartenhintergrund in Potlatch

Betrifft Kapitel 8.7, Seite 102.

Der Editor Potlatch kann nun neben dem Yahoo-Luftbild-Hintergrund auch Luftbilder von OpenAerialMap sowie die OpenStreetMap-Tiles vom Mapnik- und vom Tiles@Home-Server anzeigen. Insbesondere ist es auch möglich, den Maplint-Layer (der auf potentielle Fehler aufmerksam macht) im Hintergrund zu sehen, während man mit Potlatch arbeitet.
