Plug-in description

This plug-in adds support for OpenStreetMaps (OSM) raster layers. OpenStreetMap is a free and editable map, made by people like you. With OpenStreetMap you can view geographical data from the whole world.

At the moment this plug-in only reads in the OSM raster data. It does not read or edit the OSM vector data. Since the OSM licencing model is far less strict than Google's, this layer can be a perfect alternative for the Google street maps.

For more information, visit the OpenStreetMap website, or the copyright page.
