Anyone done latitude/longitude/geolocation things?

I just thought I might start a new challenge by doing some sort of economy/market simulator based on real locations and started thinking how I might draw lat/long data using Love2D.

I'm thinking I'd have a flat map of the globe (2D) and then somehow convert known location lat/long as pins onto this map. Haven't thought to hard about it. Anyone done that? Any lua libraries?

Yes!

I would recommend using OSM data:

Treat my utility as a proof of concept, also the code is old, so some changes might be necessary.

Thanks. I've contributed to OSM in the past but it slipped my mind. I'll check out your library. Thanks.
