I ended up making a simple mapnik style sheet with just town names and post codes. This has made spotting errors really easy, although I'm stumped as to why some post codes aren't being rendered, like this area: http://maps.bigtincan.com/?z=9&ll=-15.629,133.036&layer=00B00FF ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev

OpenLayers has nice support for vectors. It supports many formats, you can easily add WKT geometries for example. This is the best way to go if you want to add simple or dynamic overlays. The postcode finder you mentioned uses a tiled layer. Such a layer can be rendered using Mapnik. I have a nice example in [1]: Google Hybrid like, but with OSM data on top of their aerial images (unfortunately my site is Dutch, but it shows the idea).

This site shows aussie postcodes over the top of a base layer: http://www.aus-emaps.com/postcode_finder.php How would I do something similar for postcodes in the OSM DB already, and showing them as a shaded area, and 2 different colours if they've been reviewed or not. Something like this maybe: http://www.censusdata.abs.gov.au/ABSNavigation/ImageServer?id=map,Census,2006,POA4480 ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
