Here are all downloads and resources:

“These maps and the data are freely available, copyright free, and intended to be improved by any competent and motivated person wishing to go on site to continue this volunteer and philanthropic work supported by crowdsourcing. The principle is simple: you get the files from this website, update them, you send them back to us and we upload the new version with your data”

Hervé Quinquenel, original mapper of this map, say:

– The data belongs to the people of Battir. My maps were drawn on a voluntary basis and are not finalized. So it was more logical to leave it free and open to anyone who wants to use them or, even better, to improve them, he says.

To contact original authors for questions, specific needs, expressions of interest or suggestions : herve.quinquenel(at)ign.fr

Actual behaviour

Sometime OCD maps could be imported with some issues in OMAP

Expected behaviour

Use this example map for check is OCAD and OOM produce same PDF. PDF produced from this map using OCAD already presented in different scales on linked website

Also propose convert it OMAP format and include in OOMapper as example. Another one target send it in OMAP format to original author for promoting OOMapper

Configuration

Comparing PDFs is not feasible. Best thing we could do is compare raster maps.

Found one more free & open-source orienteering map -- "Nybo" o-map released on 2018-08-02 under CC-BY-SA 2.5 license by Sven Lundbäck.

Here is my fork of it (for archiving purpose):

It's look like map originally designed in Mapper, then exported to OCD, reopened in OCAD11 (and re-saved in OCD?) and exported to PDF...

So, I will ask Sven Lundbäck for original original OMAP file (source) too.
