Georgia in Georgian

Posted by ColinMarquardt on 11 February 2008 in English.

It just took an update of the DejaVu font on tile to have the local Georgian names rendered (thanks jburgess):
osm.org/?lat=41.539&lon=43.896&zoom=9&layers=B0FT

I was looking at the map sources on Wikipedia for მცხეთა/Mtskheta (http://tools.wikimedia.de/~magnus/geo/geohack.php?pagename=Mtskheta¶ms=41_51_N_44_43_E_type:city), and it seems OpenStreetMap is the only online map which shows Georgia in local script. Quite cool.

Location: Mtskheta, Mtskheta Municipality, Mtskheta-Mtianeti, Georgia
