Use of OSM Maps
From version 1.6.0 OSM Maps are available for these features as an alternative to Google Maps.
This decision was taken following the modification of Google's Policy, which also requires for the sporadic display only the acquisition of an API key linked to a Billing count on a Credit Card.
In order to use the Reverse Geocoding services I used static JavaScript Libraries (in this way the loading is faster), present in the subfolder \JSLibrary.
The new OSM Maps have nothing to envy to those of Google, infact in some respects they are even better.
I inserted 3 Map Layers, selectable via the "control panel" at the top right of the display screen.
The 3 Layers are:
StreetMaps (default) – OSM Street Maps
TopMaps – Topographic Maps, source OpenTopo Maps
Satellite – source Esri_WorldImagery
Package attached ...
Have Fun!
