There's a new map style on OpenStreetMap.org
Is this not good? (Genuine question if you tried it. I never used it, I just had it bookmarked because the README looked good.)

Simple solution for rendering a satellite view of a small area
You can render tiles of a small region from OSM data yourself with https://github.com/enzet/map-machine, but I have no idea how to do this for aerial imagery.

certain map data wont show in export
I really like map-machine for exporting OSM data to an image. It unfortunately also doesn't render benches as ways, but at least puts an icon there. Here is the result of running map-machine render -c 48.14867/11.55902 -z 19 -s 2000,1000: https://imgur.com/k1s8NOi

There is a Docker file as well.

Help: getting PNG of map given bounding box GPS coordinates
I think you should be able to get a render of a region with https://github.com/enzet/map-machine, but I currently fail to install this on my machine...

Just finished first 250 icons for Röntgen project aimed to show as many OSM map features as possible
BTW, there is also an issue tracker on GitHub, where one can request new icons for favorite tags.

There's a new map style on OpenStreetMap.org
Have been using https://opentopomap.org for this for a while, and depending on what you're looking for it still has some advantages: does show the numbers on all height lines (osm only does the 50m one in my area for some reason, leaving you to guess whether the next one is 40m or 60m since that is not always obvious - seems like a key thing for a topographic map), does show the house numbers.

Are there any good digital atlases?
For example OpenTopoMap looks very similar to most maps that were in my school atlas. I like the MapTiler renderings too.

I need some help creating a map with some layers
https://brouter.damsy.net/ The topo map is provided by https://opentopomap.org/ Alternatively, if you have an OSM account, you can go into edit mode on OSM website and drag GPX traces into the window to display them. You can't get elevation profile this way but you can use topographic map background or a better range of satellite imagery, and you can use Bing imagery without an API key.

Eduard: Swiss-Style Relief Shading for Maps Using Machine Learning
The chances of the problem not having being already tackled with deterministic algorithms is the thinnest - and in fact, yes, there do exist tools, as expected.
See the sections about 'hillshade' at the OpenTopoMap "from scratch" instructions, at https://github.com/der-stefan/OpenTopoMap/blob/master/mapnik...
- any app that shows mountain ranges?

How to generate MBTiles covering a shape and not a rectangular extent?
I have generated and hosted locally an instance of OpenTopoMap covering South America. Now I want to create a set of MBTiles for each individual country. Using the Raster tools -> Generate XYZ tiles (MBTiles) I can do that for a rectangular extent (drawn on map or calculated from layer). Can I do it for an irregular shape? I downloaded a .shp file for Argentina, for example - https://i.imgur.com/3IGJ88A.png
