I hadn't notices the discussion page. Thank for that. Very useful. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=10.9112lon=77.02036zoom=17layers=0B00FTF I think osmarender and Mapnik do a fair job of the rendering. The result is fine, however the tagging is pretty dirty - using 'natural=beach' for a bunker is fine to illustrate a point - which is what it is for - but is clearly not suitable for general practice. I will use the proposed tagging of golf=bunker and wait for the rendering to catch up!

I'm not a golfer, so don't have a lot of interest in adding golf maps to the (already rather overloaded) OpenPisteMap server I'm afraid. However, all the source is available from my Subversion, so you could set up your own. For a one-off map you might be better off using one of the easy map renderers though. - Steve xmpp:st...@nexusuk.org sip:st...@nexusuk.org http://www.nexusuk.org/ Servatis a periculum, servatis a maleficum - Whisper, Evanescence ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Any chance of opengolfmap? I am needing a map to show the interaction between an existing golf course and a proposed cycle route. I can add the data to the map but I am not aware of anything that will render it. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Golf_course You can use OpenLayers to placed additional items (icons, ways, bitmaps, etc) on top of a Tile-Server based map, meaning that you don't need to render special tiles. If the cycle route and/or golf course interaction is quite simple you can generate these as seperate OSM 'xml' files and (effectively) render in the browser. This has the advantage of not 'polluting' the OSM database with stuff which is (not yet) real. A very simple example(s) is here: http://www.mungewell.org/osm/osm.html http://www.cossfest.ca/osm_coast_plaza/osm_coast_plaza.html Cheers Mungewell. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Also, I don't think it is fair to call it 'polluting the map' to add current details just because there is no rendering . Tagging normally takes place ahead of rendering or there would be nothing to render! Out of interest, is there a way of overlaying KML on OSM tiles using OL as there is with google maps if one points the search box to a KML file? Thanks for the response.

The 'polluting' comment was aimed at the _proposed_ cycle path, not the golf course details.
