+    There are currently three observers available: ``LoggingObserver``, 
+    ``ProgressBarObserver`` and ``JSObserver``. 
+
+    ``LoggingObserver``
+         This gives the normal/older style output and is the default when output
+         is redirected to a file or when running on Windows
+
+    ``ProgressBarObserver``
+        This is used by default when the output is a terminal. Displays a text based
+        progress bar and some statistics.
+
+    ``JSObserver``
+        This will display render progress on the output map in the bottom right
+        corner of the screen. ``JSObserver`` must be invoked with two parameters.
+
+        The first is output directory. For simplicity, specify this as ``outputdir``
+        and place this line after setting ``outputdir = "<output directory path>"``.
+        
+        The second parameter is the  minimum interval between progress updates in 
+        seconds. Progress information won't be written to file or requested by 
+        your web browser more frequently than this interval.
