Marble - Maps for Download
This page contains a few packages that contain map data for the Qt-Only version of Marble. You can install this data manually. Users of the KDE version can get these maps with "Download maps..." in the "File" menu.
You have to extract these files into Marble's maps directory. On Windows this is data/maps in your Marble installation. On Linux you will find it in $XDG_DATA_HOME/marble/maps while $XDG_DATA_HOME is usually ~/.local/share.
