Hi, I need a map of Greenland as close as possible to the real shape - so not Mercator. Is it possible to toggle the projection in OpenStreetMap to get a Lagrange or Lambert projection? Or ideally a planar Arctic projection? Thanks |

Have a look at http://webmap.arcticconnect.ca/ - lots of [del]projection options[/del] (Edit: oh wait, in version 2.0 it's only EPSG:3573, version 1.0 had more) for a polar map of the Arctic region. If you want to build the map yourself, https://osm2pgsql.org/examples/antarctica/ has some guidance (whilst for Antarctica, it could be used for the Artic polar region as well by changing the wanted projection in the workflow), MazDerMind had also built a mapnik stylesheet years ago ( https://github.com/MaZderMind/mapnik-stylesheets-polar ), the demo is defunct as of now (2022). With the standard OSM tile layer you can't just toggle the projection as that layer is raster based and the projection defined at production of the layer, so you would either have to build it yourself (see last paragraph) or use a map where this is already done (see first paragraph). Thanks a lot
