Prevent panning beyond the edge of the world #6655

Open quincylvania opened 5 years ago

iD shouldn't let you pan such that the imagery and data are off screen. It's disorienting.

Note that the Mercator projection extends infinitely along the y-axis, which means features like the north and south poles sit far beyond the extent of the imagery. I'm not sure how we should handle those.

I think that preventing people from editing the North/South Pole is fine.

We could still let people search and select them plus edit their tags, just not drag them around.

Ha I searched South Pole and iD took me to map=NaN/NaN/NaN.
