The search box has been updated to search the power plants and substations in our database, in addition to the places search from @opencage.

(You can also paste lat/lon coordinates in the search box in order to navigate to them.)

The base map on https://openinframap.org has been updated and is now using the Protomaps basemap schema:

The style has also been extensively tweaked, and it looks a bit more colourful at lower zooms - thoughts/feedback welcome!

There's now a @wikidata property for Global Energy Monitor links, and Open Infrastructure Map now displays this link when available.

Added initial support for showing Osmose power validation issues. These are only visible at zoom level 11 and above, and clicking them is currently a bit tricky due to a Maplibre bug.

New nighttime nights layer! This shows nighttime lights data from NASA's "black marble" dataset collected by the Suomi NPP satellite. The data is from 2023.

It should be handy for identifying unmapped power infrastructure. It also looks cool.

The solar generation heatmap layer has been updated to finally take into account power plants which don't have generators mapped. Plant output is (roughly) estimated from area if there is none tagged.

The heatmap weightings have been re-calibrated somewhat […]

The info box has also been redesigned so it's somewhat less ugly.

Many common tag values are also now translated - we now have translations in 9 different languages, but if you'd like to help translate it into yours:

A few more updates added recently: water and sewage treatment plants and reservoirs are now visible on the water layer.

You can now follow Open Infrastructure Map on Bluesky or Mastodon (posts are bridged using Bridgy Fed).

We're now running MapLibre 5.0.0-pre.3 on https://openinframap.org, which seems to have fixed the rendering issues we were seeing related to the globe mode.

If you spot any other weirdness, please let us know so we can pass any issues upstream.
