This generates zoom levels 8 to 11 directly from the database, rather than using the old method of downloading all of the Zoom 12 tiles, stitching them together, then reducing them. The new method displays decent sized town and city names that you can actually read.
Looks pretty good. Did you also upload the coastlines? If so, you can
delete the coastline I traced from Dampier to Broome as it was a rushed
job.
There's still a few odd patches in northern Australia - 216,144 z8 is
one, a patch far off the north-west coast, the Kimberley coast and Cape
York Peninsula. Are there data problems that need to be fixed here?
