Vector maps (or not - that is the question)

Seeing as the maps on Trondheim Kommune (available here by the way) can't be exported to anything else than bitmap graphics (greedy bastards) I've created vector maps of Havnegata/Brattøra in the scales of 1:10000 and 1.2500. I'll upload them to Torget as soon as we get access, until then you can send me a mail on tarjei.ekelund@gmail.com and I'll mail them to you. I'll also mail you the bitmap from Trondheim Kommune if you want them and you're having problems doing it yourself. There's one, sad reason for why you might want to use them and not the vectors:

Unfortunately, NTNUs most updated map data are from 2009, which means a lot's lacking from the maps. The new bridge right next to our hub, for instance, as well as the roundabout leading to the bridge and some other details, aren't drawn. If anyone could be bothered to draw them in Illustrator that would be awesome (it's one heck of a job and I won't do it unless someone pays me a lot of chocolate!) - if not I guess we'll have to stick to bitmap underlays for now. Hurrah.
