14 October 2024

Pleiades maps for place views, search, and the home page have been adjusted to set larger maximum bounds. This change means that these maps can pan and zoom to any location in a latitude/longitude-bounded area that covers Africa, Asia, and Europe. The maps were previously more tightly constrained. Location maps were always and remain unconstrained.

A good example exploiting the new range is the site of Teniky in Madagascar: pleiades.stoa.org/places/37731
