Dear All, Thank you for all the valuable information regarding the aviation map topic on the list. How I see it, the following would be the solution for what I'm looking for:
- I'd need to host my own OSM server, using the rails port, as described here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/The_Rails_Port there I could store the aviation maps, separate from the 'offical' OSM map database - I'd use Mapnik, as described here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mapnik to render the map into bitmaps. to handle the specialties of aviation map artifacts, I'd need to create rendering rules within Mapnik (?) - looking at the map would be via an overlay, so that a 'usual' OSM map is but underneath, for visual navigation. - for layers / airport approach charts, maybe something similar needs to be used as OSMTransport, http://3liz.fr/public/osmtransport/ - does anyone know what technology is being used here? Again, thank you for all the input! Akos _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
