 render(myMap) - Printed OpenStreetMap maps for local surveys
 ==
-render(myMap) has been in development since 2011. It consists of a web frontend and a server backend that uses an external OSM render engine to generate maps. No PostGIS or other complex OSM backend required.
+render(myMap) provides easy way to render specially styled OpenStreetMap maps, for surveying the area. We call it detail survey print, where **all objects are rendered**.
+
+It consists of a web frontend and a server backend that uses an external OSM render engine to generate maps. No PostGIS or other complex OSM backend required. The system has been in development since 2011.  See built in help on the live website (demo) for more info on usage.

 **NOTE** this will not run on usual web hosting providers, because it requires rendering backend installed on the server. So you need your own complete server or virtual host.
