Summary description: Spherical Mercator coordinate systems and Web
Mercator tile integration
Announcement text:
- Sorting of index key entries fixed for the documentation. - User messages for failed Python script calls are changed from warnings to errors to fail fast and to provide more information and hints about possible reasons. - New general marker option '/mermap/marker/generic' with corresponding macros '\mrcmarkergeneric}' and '\l_mermap_marker_generic_tl'. Also, the marker uuid is made expl3 accessible as '\l_mermap_marker_uuid_tl'. - New hyper marker options '/mermap/marker/url', '/mermap/marker/link', '/mermap/marker/use urls', '/mermap/marker/ignore urls', '/mermap/marker/use links','/mermap/marker/ignore links'.
This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/mercatormap More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/mercatormap
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Manfred Lotz CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups. Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs .

mercatormap – Spherical Mercator coordinate systems and Web Mercator tile integration
This package extends TikZ with tools to create map graphics.
The provided coordinate system relies on the Web Mercator projection used on the Web by OpenStreetMap and others.
The package supports the seamless integration of graphics from public map tile servers by a Python script. Also, common map elements like markers, geodetic networks, bar scales, routes, orthodrome pieces, and more are part of the package.
