here is a comparison between ESRI (from my test app) and google maps: http://i.imgur.com/9iYjlqD.jpg location is one of the northmost islands of Palau: https://www.google.com/maps/place/8%C2%B005'37.0%22N+134%C2%B043'06.9%22E/@8.09361,134.716955,726m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d8.09361!4d134.718572 google seem to support at least one more zoom level and an overall cleaner picture. but the ESRI implementation inside QtLocation supports offline mode. i've checked and i don't think QtLocation supports google map tiles as sources. so Marble seems to have the best of both worlds for now - google tiles and offline support. lubomir -- _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list subsurface@subsurface-divelog.org http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
