  A small set of Python functions to draw pretty maps from OpenStreetMap data. Based on osmnx, matplotlib and shapely libraries.

For some reason it was commented out, and the author didn't say why:

Especially if you're trying to clip your entire map to some boundary, rendering the ocean is hard. https://github.com/a-b-street/abstreet/issues/32 has some examples of "flooded" maps when the heuristics get the inversion wrong. https://github.com/a-b-street/abstreet/blob/9761373c4b215485... is my incomplete attempt to deal with these partial multipolygons.

I don't know about a discussion, but i know a lot of people are moving to plotly [1] or seaborn [2] as they are prettier and more intuitive.
