Would love to find something like this for rural areas. Maddening sometimes how details disappear from most online maps based only on zoom level rather than on feature density.

as long as there is openstreetmap data for it It should work for rural areas as well :)

was able to do Cape Breton Island [1], maps look really nice!

Beautiful! I tried it with quite a few cities. Most of the cities hardly look as if they were planned out!

A few from the Wikipedia list [0] looks nice though.
