Map generation for Wikipedia:WikiProject OpenStreetMap/Town maps

Image

Easy to get from OSM servers. People on wikicommons tend to tag them with **THIS SHOULD BE SVG! REPLACE WITH SVG!** templates though when they see vector'ish data.

SVG

Example SVG, showing the region of interest filling only a small portion of image

The mediawiki renderer doesn't seem to crop to the page edges. This means that it's pretty useless with osmarender SVGs, since it scales-down the image until absolutely everything in the SVG file will fit into the image.
