0.24.1

⚠️ IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ⚠️

Starting version 0.26.0 (in about a week or two from today, 13.02.2025), Dawarich will use postgis/postgis:17-3.5-alpine as the default database docker image. Please consider updating your database image as suggested in the docs on the website. If you have encountered problems with moving to a PostGIS image while still on Postgres 14, I collected a selection of compatible docker images for different CPU architectures, which you can also find in the docs.

Custom map tiles

In the user settings, you can now set a custom tile URL for the map. This is useful if you want to use a custom map tile provider or if you want to use a map tile provider that is not listed in the dropdown.

To set a custom tile URL, go to the user settings and set the Maps section to your liking. Be mindful that currently, only raster tiles are supported. The URL should be a valid tile URL, like https://{s}.tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png. You, as the user, are responsible for any extra costs that may occur due to using a custom tile URL.
