I am a student interested in applying to Gsoc idea : Developing a statics
map API for openstreetmap like the one for Google map.
The major work involved :
Can openstreetmap data be converted to GIS / GDAL
Real Time conversion of openstreetdata to image files ( MapniK is one of the
tools that can
Hi thanks for the quick response
Well actually my mail is in response to one of the ideas published here:

The basic idea is to have a Static API like Google's static
Hi all,
I think what this essentialy means is that the content shall be
delivered in the form of an image file ... well the advantage that I
see for a web designer would be that it would be much lighter option.

Isn't Mapniks up-to-date backend exactly

Hi all,
Earlier I posted about how my friend and I were creating a distributed
data store for OSM data. We've finished our project and gotten the most
difficult queries going. All of our code is freely available along with
a report about our design and findings on or github wiki at

This conclusion (divide and conquer) is right for fetch. What was your

Stefan,
Our update performance shouldn't be too different. We simply send the
update request to all the node machines.
By within do you mean a bounding box query? Could you be more specific?
Thanks,

And your node machines do not cache their partition results? (Thus is a
scan always required?)

We don't do any caching ourselves
I wrote a php+gd image stitcher in php a year or so ago as a proof of
concept. It was meant for showing the position of a vehicle on the
center of a ~300px square image for a mobile phone screen.
It creates a matrix of osm images (size based on the final image
dimensions) which it either

No, I wasn't suggesting any API change. I said:

Maybe even simpeler and more dynamic mapwise would be:
- Set up a wms server like mapserver (cgi-bin) somewhere on the globe.
(Well documented)
- Create a virtual layer that lets mapserver connect to a openstreetmap

This is the only hard part since it involves calculating the

Maybe to make some intelligent analyse service, something like ITOWorld's
OSM Mapper, but a bit different. This service collects diffs and prepares
