Title: USA states outlines?
Post by: 11elevenths on July 01, 2022, 22:12:50
Anybody know a map that can show the outlines of the states well...not hard to see lines.  I'm surprised google is so weak at this.  I did find a way to import tracks that draw the outlines...this worked well except it slows the entire phone down and therefore makes it unusable.  overlay somewhere?

You might try WMS from sciencebase.gov
Not a push button thing, I suppose.

If you don't mind digging into XML you could use an offline map and theme from openandromaps and modify the XML of the theme so that admin_level 4 is made thicker.

Try the following WMS
https://tigerweb.geo.census.gov/arcgis/services/TIGERweb/tigerWMS_Census2020/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS

Enable layers "States" and "States Labels"
