New maps added to satmap.com include:

There are five maps in this series covering different Spanish regions at 1:25k. Each map has an additional 1:200k map layer covering the whole of Spain. The Spanish maps cover the many beautiful islands which are popular with European visitors each year, such as Majorca, Ibiza, Tenerife, and Gran Canaria.
