Versions will be tagged with the osm-carto version that is supported.

History

This style was originally developed by Mapbox between 2012 → 2016.

In late 2021, Geofabrik patched it to simplify the installation, and make it work with the latest openstreetmap-carto database installed with osm2pgsql.

This style is no longer being actively maintained.
