About being able to add additional layers: I think this is something that quite a few people have shown a desire for. Will start a separate thread with Tim (the author) and see if we can perhaps work together to add an option to add custom layers or so. About the server being slow, I think it is recommended to cache and serve the tiles from your own server after you are done warping on mapwarper.net. Again, I think this could be helped with some how-to. I think Srinivas Kodali setup this instance: http://mapwarper.in which we wanted to use as a warper instance for Indian maps. Shall take this discussion off-list to see if we can hack on specific stuff together, etc. Warping maps can be addictive :-) Cheers! -Sanjay > -- > Cheers, > Nikhil > +91-966-583-1250 > Pune, India > Self-designed learner at Swaraj University < > http://www.swarajuniversity.org> > http://nikhilsheth.blogspot.in > > > > -- > Datameet is a community of Data Science enthusiasts in India.
