I don't think that I need this format. I need simple OSM-tiles (256px, x/y/z.png). I want to render metatiles to be more efficient. Currently using generate_tiles with a buffer of 350, and I guess rendering metatiles will speed up the whole process a lot. >> I >> am aware of renderd and tirex, but both of them seem to require >> mod_tile.

I read in the wiki that it was not possible, so I didn't try till now. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Mapnik-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/mapnik-users
