Disable scroll wheel zoom feature in the OpenStreetMap of fossasia.github.io

completed by: Allen Chou

mentors: Mario Behling, Andreas Bräu

There are a number of ways to disable the scroll mouse wheel zoom feature in the Maps. Please implement this in the OpenStreetMap for the map at http://fossasia.github.io/#map

Background

Using the scrolling wheel of the mouse scrolling down it suddenly stops if I am with the cursor over the map area. Instead of continuing to scroll down, I am starting to zoom in to the map. How can this be avoided? What technology can you implement? Have a look at the map on http://fossasia.org. Here this behavior does not happen.
