The once-and-for-all solution would be a full history DB schema from which vector tiles could be extracted for any point in time. Martijn van Exel > On Jan 30, 2017, at 1:26 PM, Maarten Deen wrote: > > On 2017-01-30 12:07, Simon Poole wrote: >> I suspect the main problem is that in 2007 we did

It is less a HW issue but more that you would still need to keep 10+ tile servers plus databases running which is, ahem, silly :-). I don't have a pointer handy but there has been some work done on extracting a certain point in time iirc from a API DB via views, that might scale slightly better.

My poor little tile server machine doesn’t have the storage for that, but it would sure be cool to set this up for more points in time. The server itself is not hard to get up and running, although I did find the instructions on switch2osm to be out of date. I followed the instructions here: ht

It is 'nice' to see the progress of OSM. Rather than a yearly thing .. every 7 years might be ok, there was a TV program on some children progressing into adulthood .. think that was done every 7 or so years too. On 29-Jan-17 05:12 AM, François Lacombe wrote: Hi Martin, Thank you, great job

It's great to see it back up & running. As has been mentioned a time slider for intervening years would be nice. Also, would it be possible to render it in the carto of the corresponding year to see the difference in appearance? DaveF On 26/01/2017 22:17, Martijn van Exel wrote: Hi all, I

Hi all, I resuscitated the OSM then and now service, where you can compare OSM as it was in October 2007 with now. The service is a bit slow because 2007 tiles above z10 are not pre-rendered. This will improve as tiles get cached. Here is the location of SOTM 2016 as an example: http://mvexel
