Sorry - meant to cover that - should have said this is just a mechanism to test getting the OSM tiles into a WMS layer - as I appreciate that if the ultimate aim was getting OSM tiles in openlayers its a pretty silly way of doing it !
Ultimately the aim was to use them in a custom desktop app along with other WMS delivered data. The other possible route is to reference the tiles directly from the desktop app (which was actually what I was looking at when I saw this option in GDAL and thought seeing as WMS service was going to be used anyway - this might be an easier route getting all the data delivered in in one go) Thanks On Tue, Dec 1, 2009 at 6:59 PM, Christopher Schmidt <crschm...@metacarta.com> wrote: > On Tue, Dec 01, 2009 at 06:51:58PM +0000, James Perrins wrote: >> I've been trying to use Open street map tiles via a mapserver WMS >> service displayed in OpenLayers. > > Er... why?
