# January 2025

This release note provides information about the release of the OS VectorMap Local product released on 13 January 2025.

## Known issues

There are intermittent issues with the rendering of tile edges in OS VectorMap Local – Colour Raster, Black and White Raster and Colour Backdrop Raster.

The issue presents itself in a variety of forms including double pixel tile edges, missing tile edges and edges with a border of white pixels, the latter creating an offset resulting in small gaps between some tiles.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.os.uk/os-downloads/products/maps-and-imagery-portfolio/os-vectormap-local/release-notes/january-2025.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
