The mercatormap package extends TikZ with tools to
create map graphics. The provided coordinate system relies on the
Web Mercator projection used on the Web by OpenStreetMap and others.
The package supports the seamless integration of graphics
from public map tile servers by a Python script. Also, common map
elements like markers, geodetic networks, bar scales, routes, orthodrome
pieces, and more are part of the package.
