Map of Chester rendered in August 2006. This was a notable early example of rendered OpenStreetMap data from very early in the History of OpenStreetMap. It inspired the creation of "featured images", and was the very first to be featured!

Created using osmarender (or more specifically a modified osmarender2 to SVG; displayed by Adobe SVG plugin for Internet Explorer; screen capture cropped and converted by Adobe Elements to PNG) it was notable at the time for including areas in the rendering style (colours showing parks, commercial and retail districts, and residential areas)
