Description

**Describe the bug**
When using the "Show on map" function in CyberChef ('Zoom level': 13, 'Input Format': Auto, 'Input Delimiter': Auto) with the input coordinates 45.693147, 11.880739, the output panel displays the location bookmark, but instead of the map, a grey screen appears.

**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the issue:
1. Open the link: "https://gchq.github.io/CyberChef/#recipe=Show_on_map(13,'Auto','Auto')&input=NDUuNjkzMTQ3LCAxMS44ODA3Mzk".
2. Check the "Output" panel.
3. Notice that while the location is marked, the map does not render correctly (grey screen instead).

**Expected behaviour**
The "Output" panel should display a map with the indicated location instead of a grey background.

**Desktop (if relevant, please complete the following information):**
- OS: Windows 10 Pro 22H2 64 bit
- Browser: Firefox desktop 138.0.4 (64 bit)
- CyberChef version: 10.19.4

**Additional context**
This may be a rendering issue with the map or a failure in loading geographic data.
The problem persists across different coordinates.
