Known gaps, stated plainly

What is not here, and why. These lines come from the app and are removed the day a layer ships.

The forest management map of the Executive Forest Agency is listed but cannot be opened yet: no licence is published for it. We have asked the agency, and it unlocks here the moment it is confirmed.
Some new layers are listed but cannot be opened yet: their terms do not yet clearly allow a paid app to show them. They unlock here the moment that is confirmed.
Detailed flood hazard maps are published only by the East Aegean River Basin Directorate, so they cover southern Bulgaria; the Danube, Black Sea and West Aegean directorates have no public map service. The areas of potential significant flood risk, and the water bodies from the European Environment Agency, cover the whole country.
Species records are not included: the ministry's species surveys show the exact locations of sensitive species. Landslides have no public map service.
