Topographic maps from OSM and SRTM data

OpenTopoMap (opentopomap.org) is a project aiming at rendering topographic maps from OSM and SRTM data. The map style is similar to some official German or French topographic maps, such as TK50 or TOP 25.

Major features

  • Worldwide, Zoom to 17. (Zoom limited to 15 on website opentopomap.org)
  • Updates every now and then
  • symbols of important points (churches, towers, wind energy, important trees,...)
  • high contrast, print-friendly
  • contour lines and hillshading
  • hiking and biking layers (Lonvia's)
  • geolocation and search function
  • fast permalink – just copy the web address
