Adding Alberta & Saskatchewan/Manitoba for more Canadian clubs. Not sure how to edit https://mapgen-data.sigkill.ch/maps.config.js

Hey there!

To fulfill the request of new maps such as this one: I created https://github.com/xcsoar/xcsoar-data-maps/ for adding new maps. The purpose of this repository is to regenerate the maps periodically (Thursday night) with up to date way-points, and hopefully soon up to date openstreetmap data.

So instead of adding an external xcm file, I'd rather generate the map on the fly with this batch process.

Regards,

  • Is there anything special in the XCM file, other than what is currently produced by the map generator?
  • Can i take the coordinates and generate ‘CAN_S_SK_MA_HighRes.xcm’ ?

Ya, that sounds good to me. Nothing special in the xcm file. I'll try putting it in. Thanks for all your efforts with this!
