Natural Earth Dataset derived Zoom Levels

Introduction

While we use the actual data provided by OpenStreetMap for all higher levels (starting from level 9/11) we want to use the Natural Earth Dataset for all the lower zoom levels. The style is supposed to mimic the default styling of the OpenStreetMap dataset as close as possible (to guarantee a seemless user experience).

Data Import

Natural Earth provides data in three levels of detail.
