New look and feel of XC Maps and a missing Explorer tool. The new
XC Maps has the same functionality as before with a few exceptions. New features
include the following:

1. The Explorer tool is now rolled into the main map tool allowing easy
exploration of routes and point forecasts all within a central application. Old
links will redirect to the new tool and load the same information in a slightly
different format.

2. New layout of the My XC Skies page with clearer links to saved profiles and
QuickCasts.

3. The previous maps API has been replaced with the OpenLayers map API, which
provides more mapping features to be leveraged down the road.

New base map layers and missing road overlays. Google imagery is no longer being
used. To align XC Skies towards an open source goal, open-source map imagery is
now being used. Base map layers can be accessed with

feature on the top right of the map. This shows all layers currently used on the
map and allows changing the base layer.

New icons have been added to the map to free up precious screen real-estate.
