[OSM-talk] New ITO electricity distribution map

Wed Apr 30 14:54:13 UTC 2014

This is very nice improvement!

I'm happy to see that even my rather spotty/patchy mapping of power infra
in Haiti is finally being visualized/rendered in a way that it starts to
demonstrate the usefulness of OSM as power mapping platform for also those
that don't use the data (in separate applications). This will hopefully
help to advocate for the use of OSM.

Now, I too would like to make a suggestion:
Accented characters don't seem to get rendered at all in place name labels.
See e.g.
http://www.itoworld.com/map/4?lon=-72.27848&lat=18.51272&zoom=16&open_sidebar=map_key&fullscreen=truewhere
"Pétionville" is rendered as "Ptionville" (almost center, slightly to
the left), "Tête de l'eau" is "Tte de l'eau" (center bottom) and
"Péguy-Ville" is "Pguy-Ville" (right center).

Can someone pass this onwards / what would be the address / who would be
the person to send improvement suggestions (also in the future)?

Thanks to all who've worked on this!
-Jaakko
