Hi all,

I just replaced the Bing aerial imagery analyzer tool with a new version.

http://mvexel.dev.openstreetmap.org/bing/

It now also visualizes the remaining zoom depth. This means that you
can see how many zoom levels worth of imagery there is below your
current tile, without having to zoom all the way in. It uses an
approximation technique to reduce load on the Bing servers.

The remaining zoom depth is visible at zoom level 12 and beyond.

Also new is local caching of all the generated tiles, also to reduce
Bing server load and increase performance.

Have fun,
Martijn
