Geolocate results cannot be viewed. #310

Closed timo11 closed 5 years ago

timo11 commented 5 years ago

The openstreetmaps tile server is rejecting specify's requests for tiles. So the map view in the geolocate results window is blank.

Tile factory base url can now be set via the remote pref GEOLOCATE_TILE_FACTORY_URL.

for example: https://a.tile.opentopomap.org (the default) http://c.tile.stamen.com/watercolor

Specify assumes the tile location is specified in z/x/y order, and that the server provides .png files.

e87ac1a adds the User-Agent header to requests which seems to stop openstreetmaps from rejecting the requests.
