Re: [OSM-dev] Tiles provider
Hi,Thank you for the response. I do have a offline tiles server on windows, I was just wondering if there was an easier way to download all the tiles of a big area for someone who does not want to install a tiles server. I didn't find any tiles provider in the list that allow you to download all the tiles from a large area. Everything seems to be online.

That's what I have done last weekend instead of downloading tiles for zooms 14-15, and it turned out to be much easier that it looks. I've documented steps here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Zverik/Tile_Server_on_Fedora_20 (Someday that page will have something on setting up a tile server, but for now I stopped at generating static tiles) All you need is a linux machine and an extract of OSM data for your state.

[OSM-dev] Longitude/Latitude result different from Google/Bing
Hi, If you look at this page, you will see a cell tower at: 39.184556 / -77.249806 http://www.cellreception.com/towers/details.php?id=1230956 In google map , it shows the same thing when we type 39.184556 -77.249806.

Yes, the cell tower is located indeed at approx. 20m from the water tower. I thought that OSM was showing the CellTower, but it is the water tower, so it is fine. Thanks.

Besides the fact that I do not see a particular good reason for running a tileserver on windows (mapnik works fine on windows, so style development can already take place on windows), I seriously doubt, that this will currently work. One reason for this is, that mod_tile uses a unix-domain socket to communicate with the backend (tirex/renderd). So one would need at least convert this to a tcp/socket. IMO, there is better work to do for mod_tile. One thing that comes to mind is the still unimplemented whitelist feature for tile trotteling, which I would have needed recently.

Re: [OSM-dev] About the geographic data in a .osm file
It is very interesting Peter. I need to try the geofabrik data, but I also did a test with the cloudmade data that gave me a strange result. 1. I imported in (database1) in Postgres data from massachusset.2. I imported in (database2) in Postgres data from connecticut. Connecticut shares a border with massachusset. I generated tiles from database1, everything ok. After, I generated tiles from database2. The tiles were all generated in the same TilesCache. What happened is for some zoom level the tiles of massachusset disappeared. What I thought is that Connecticut was generating missing tiles for Massachusset. It looks like there is no way to fix that.

They should be better (I guess), but not exact. Exact splitting is much more expensive in terms of time and memory than splitting a rough bounding polygon. That polygon should contain the whole country, but may contain additional areas to reduce complexity. And - of course: As far as I know none of the available extract services splits ways or areas (except multipolygons probably) when exporting, so if a way crosses the border, it's usually contained completely in the extract. regards Peter Am 24.05.2013 23:16, schrieb Vince Berubey: Thanks Toby,you answered exactly what I was trying to understand. - I do understand why i'm getting blank tiles.- I wanted to know why there is data outside of delaware.
