#14087 new enhancement

automatically switch to a mirror source if tile loading fails or takes very long

Reported by: Klumbumbus Owned by: team
Priority: normal Milestone:
Component: Core imagery Version:
Keywords: mirror Cc:

Description

We have 25 (at Maps) resp. 24 (at maps) (I don't know where the difference comes from) <mirror> imagery entries in our database. It would be good if they are available within JOSM. Reasons are

  • primary source is temporary inavailable
  • primary source is not the fastest for every user
  • mirror source supports different projections
  • ...?

The solution could be one or more of:

  • add mirrors as sub entries in the imagery preferences
  • add mirrors as sub entries in the imagery menu
  • ask the user if he wants to switch to a mirror source if tile loading fails or takes very long
  • automatically switch to a mirror source if tile loading fails or takes very long
  • ...?

"automatically switch to a mirror source if tile loading fails or takes very long"

This one first, then don't pick a mirror if projections are not matching.

Please always count me for options with automatic resolving without user action.
