Geofabrik WMS-Server

The main advantage of the WMS server over the tile counterpart is the greater flexibility in selecting details to be shown as well as being able to change projection on the fly. Each map image will be rendered separately with the given parameters.

Try it out by clicking 'start map modification' and (de)selecting the checkboxes or choosing a different projection from the dropdown.

Please note that we display high detail initially in higher zoom levels than usual, in order to keep this service fast.
