I've put together my own personal thoughts on this topic at: http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Marble/VectorTilingProposal This just covers the basics. The actual path we take however might be subject to change depending on discussions inside the Marble Team :-) > How does drawing .osm files work > currently? Marble is a Qt library that provides projection-independent geodetic painting of geographical data. It allows to compile different sets of data arranged in a map theme. Map data can be parsed from different formats (e.g. .kml, .gpx, .shp and .osm) and imported into a single model independent of the fileformat. Have a look at http://www.slideshare.net/marbleglobe/marble-for-developers-factsheet for more information as Marble as a library. There's also a nice short 10-page C++ Marble library tutorial available starting from here: http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Marble/MarbleCPlusPlus And for more information on the Marble Virtual Globe client please have a look at http://www.slideshare.net/marbleglobe/marble-virtual-globe-13-factsheet- english (also availlable in French, Spanish, German and Hindi) See also Ander's blog on the topic of his GSoC project: http://blogs.deusto.es/gsoc-deustotech/first-steps/ Best Regards, Torsten On Freitag, 25.
