Additional web-based mapping can be trivially added by creating a new lcontroller.  See Nasal/Canvas/map/OpenAIP.lcontroller for an example.Stuart also added a Web Mercator Projection to the Canvas Map support.The wiki will be updated shortly.<ref>{{cite web  |url    =  https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?p=319545#p319545   |title  =  <nowiki> Re: Canvas G1000 </nowiki>   |author =  <nowiki> stuart </nowiki>   |date   =  Sep 28th, 2017   |added  =  Sep 28th, 2017   |script_version = 0.40   }}</ref>]]

+Most of the underlying MapStructure layers are now written (though they require styling, and/or would benefit from replacement with vector data).  Stuart has started working on the initial architecture using the MFD framework, using an initial PUI-based prototype to speed up development.  This has the great benefit of allowing all the code to be re-loaded every time the dialog loads, rather than requiring a re-init of the aircraft.  It also helps ensure the architecture isn't dependent on a particular model.

 Stuart wants to build a set of layers for a G1000-like implementation - the canvas map UI is really just a way to display it. <ref>{{cite web

-When he gets the chance he's going to write a quick wiki article on the MapStructure layers that need to be implemented for the G1000 implementation. That might help to coordinate efforts as well.<ref>{{cite web
