There's no rules as such, you can do anything you want, but places to start would be rulesets for existing renderers, including osmarender, mapnik and kosmos. http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/osmarender/stylesheets/ http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/mapnik/osm.xml http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Category:Kosmos_rules Editors such as JOSM and Potlatch focus more on rendering for editing directly, they don't care about z-layering (at my last check), and have much simpler styles: http://josm.openstreetmap.de/browser/trunk/styles/standard http://svn.openstreetmap.org/sites/rails_port/config/potlatch/colours.txt -- Regards, Thomas Wood (Edgemaster) _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies No virus found in this incoming message.
