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.
