'Search to Map' will let you overlay markings on all ways or poi that match a search criteria. (This isn't full thematic mapping, for which you might need GRASS or one of the other FLOSS GIS packages, but it may meet your need.) I use this to make field-check paper maps of the one-ways imported without direction (a peculiarity of our state GIS import, tiger doesn't even have OneWay since Census workers walk their blocks.) I blogged on this tool in my diary when I discovered it - http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Bill%20Ricker/diary/5370 http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Bill%20Ricker/diary/5307 -- Bill [email protected] [email protected]
