An interactive political atlas that remaps West Africa into 27 nations, with an editable OpenStreetMap-based source file.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-15 issue.
For
Readers exploring editable West African maps
Worth noticing
The page says the .osm file is marked so JOSM will not upload it to openstreetmap.org by mistake.

Field notes

The editing guide gives concrete JOSM steps: use an imagery background to check borders, drag nodes on shared border ways, and use the validator to flag open rings. Cities are represented as tagged points, with population controlling their displayed size. The page also distinguishes its boundary and city data from the Natural Earth rivers, lakes, and relief layers.
