How to use large Stage in Scratch

I have to write a simple program in Scratch.

It is a tourist guide of the city of my Institute (Urbino, Italy). This is the map in Openstreetmap.org:

Urbino, Italy

Scratch has a fixed size for the Stage of 480x360.

QUESTION: There is a way to use a more large Stage without charging thousand of Stages?

Why not just make it scroll. Have two variables, called "scrollX" and "scrollY". Then show them and make them sliders. (You might need to change their ranges.)

Then use this:

when greenFlag clicked
forever
  go to x:(scrollX) y:(scrollY)
end

Use a vector graphics program like InkScape to trace it and turn it into a vector image before you load it into Scratch. Only then will it retain its size and acuity.

If I understood you right, you need a larger stage to see more details of the map, right?

You can try to import the bitmap image in the vector editor, and add an ability to zoom into the map (Example for Zoom).
