 No, the three versions needed are: half-full, half-empty and twice  
 the
 neccesary size.


No, I think I was right. It is about representation. Statistically  
you're most familiar with half-full (half-empty) pint. You only see  
full pint for a few seconds and empty pints are taken away (usually)  
quickly.

 You could do it as a relation.

 The river bank would be a set of ways (each of which shares its end

 is structural, not really part of the river bank. The renderer

 with one way, find the end node as the start node of another way

 It's a bit fiddly, but it removes the problems of the
 artificial connections across the water not eing idetifiable while  
 at the same time still providing a complete polygon (albeit

Yes, this sounds reasonable to me.

OK, valid point.

 If we store the riverbanks, then we can pre-process to our hearts
 content using osm2pgsql and the like. That way I could have riverbanks
 as polylines and rivers as polygons and render them as I see fit. The
 pre-processing could work very similarly to the coastlines, using a
 left- or right-hand side rule and continuing the riverbank where one
 way joins onto the next to construct the polygons required.

Can relations help here ?

 * As I think more and more about contours, and semi-transparent
 renderings and so on I realise that most area-fills will be
 translucent with edges on my maps, so we need to avoid abutting
 polygons if we aren't intending to represent an edge.

 The main issue in practice is we now have no standard way of

 I don't have to do that manually, do I? I just enter the variables in
 set-mapnik-env, call customize-mapnik-map which replaces all %param 
 % in
 osm-template.xml which is saved to osm.xml.

 The evidence that it's working is that all symbols like for pubs and
 stations are shown on the map for example.


 Also, make sure you have postgis.input installed

 I don't know what you mean with postgis.input exactly, but I've
 installed postgresql8.2-postgis and ran it on the database, just like
 is mentioned on http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Mapnik

 Are there some alternative osm.xml files somewhere which I could test
 out?

Ok, if you have pubs etc showing means you have mapnik (+postgis plug-

Oh, one more thing, just an idea :

[OSM-talk] Fwd: Rendering wish value suburb

2008-02-05 Thread Artem Pavlenko


Begin forwarded message:


From: Michael Galonska [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date: 31 January 2008 19:27:14 GMT
To: Artem Pavlenko [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Rendering wish value suburb

Hello Artem,

Would it be possible to show the key=place value=suburbs on  
Mapnik with the same rules as

k=place, v=village? In Germany, some suburbs belong to a city or town,
but look from the outside like another village, e.g. they are  
situated outside of the city body at
1 km distance. On the map the name of the neighboring village is  
shown, while the suburbs name

does not appear. The difference is mainly administrative only.
It appears Mapnik does not render the value suburb. I do not know  
who administrates the OSM-Mapnik.
If you do not administrate the OSM-Mapnik-Tiles, perhaps you could  
forward it to the person who does (steve8?).


An example are Dutenhofen, Allendorf and Münchholzhausen  
immediately southeast of Gießen, Germany, which are suburbs. Their
names do not appear in Mapnik. On the other hand places like  
Heuchelheim (west of Gießen) are tagged as villages, and they do  
appear.

The value suburb is also rendered on the corresponding Osmarender map.

The example link:
http://www.informationfreeway.org/? 
lat=50.562568187435595lon=8.600855394950692zoom=13layers=F0B0F


Thanks in advance,

Michael Galonska
Longbow4u on

Sounds reasonable to me. Can we render place=suburbs ?

Don't think so. Try unzipping them

 Am I missing something else?

If you're serious about rendering high-quality maps and I believe

Hi Neil,



 Unfortunately the Mapnik data is only half there (this

 render at all at zoom level 6 and below. These are all

 there is not much detail that is worth zooming in for

This can be solved quite easily for Mapnik layer if you could provide

 Mapnik is c++ library that can be used with any modern GUI toolkit to

 web based service is one of them.

 As you said : mapnik is c++ library hence useless for ordinary
 mortals. To unlock the power of mapnik they need a setup that
 feeds mapnik map data, a front to easily edit their mapstyle
 and a backend that let's them chop and save tiles/maps/jpegs
 whatever. And that is not (yet) within reach of ordinary mortals,
 is it?


This is why I started: http://trac.mapnik.org/browser/trunk/demo/viewer
 But the more I think of it, merkaartor has quite a bit of that
 already : it has the data and the tools to easily download them
 from OSM api. It recently acquired a mapstyle editor (albeit
 quite basic for now). It has a user interface for finding your
 area of interest.

 What we are missing is the interface towards mapnik
 but given both are c++ projects I don't see huge problems...

You should have no problems at all.

 I'll investigate some more this weekend.

 Maybe spherical Mercator (same as in GMap) would produce better

 Problem is that mercator doesn't work for the poles, which is kinda
 important for 3D. Also as you get closer to the poles you need to load
 more tiles to cover the same area. Plate Carre isn't perfect, but it's
 much better for this purpose. If we setup a tileserver to render in
 platecarre that might at least fix the stretching, maybe...?

Yep, you're right, Mercator is no help.
  BTW, I rendered tiles (for marble) in Lat/Lon aka Geographic, Plate  
Carre, equirectangular,cylindrical equidistant, unprojected etc.

 Yes, you're right  mercator would be wasteful. When I got spare

 quality.

 No, the tilesize shouldn't affect the render quality at all.
Ok.

 Manually adjusting the point at which Marble switches to a  
 different tile
 level could have a positive effect.

 Right now it happens in

 void AbstractScanlineTextureMapper::selectTileLevel( ViewParams*  
 viewParams )

 using the formula

 double  linearLevel = ( 2.0 * (double)( radius )
  / (double) ( m_tileLoader-tileWidth() ) );

 I guess ideally the size of the tile on the screen would match  
 about the size
 of the original tile. You can check this by changing line 119 in
 marble/src/lib/TextureTile.cpp from

   bool tileIdVisible = false; if(tileIdVisible)  
 m_painter.paintTileId(theme);

 to

   bool tileIdVisible = true; if(tileIdVisible) m_painter.paintTileId 
 (theme);


 This will enable you to see the tile borders and the filenames +  
 tile level
 visually directly on the screen. This Debug Mode is very helpful  
 when you
 work with tiles in Marble!

Thanks, I'll try this.

 Maybe you can afford better resampling at high zooms for smoother
 results?

 I'm not sure whether this can be implemented easily at sufficient  
 speed. Right
 now Marble just looks up the exact color value on the map for  
 each point on
 the screen
 We could try to do some more sophisticated high quality rendering  
 when the
 user stops moving the map.

I think this could work. if you're planning to pull tiles from a web  
service, then rendering fast (scaled) globe and repainting on each  
tile arrival (with bilinear interpolation for example) shouldn't be a  
problem. I did something like that - pulling tiles from VE and  
warping them on-fly into NatGrid and it worked really well (qt4).

 Whether it's possible to do the same at acceptable
 speed while moving is a completely different question though 

I think for 'moving' current approach works well.

   BTW, I rendered tiles (for marble) in Lat/Lon aka Geographic, Plate
 Carre, equirectangular,cylindrical equidistant, unprojected etc.

 The map in his screenshot must be from quite some time ago. The same
 area of central London now has considerably more data

 I think that misses the point. There are still many, many other areas
 where there is still just as little data, but that's not the point  
 either.

 The key thing is 'how do you know?'. If you look at the current  
 coverage
 of that London area, it probably looks quite convincing now,  
 whereas in
 her slide it was obviously incomplete, yet I bet it isn't (in fact, I
 know it isn't - there are numerous missing streets in the densely  
 mapped
 central London). How would I know this? How do I know whether I can
 trust this map or not? (*)

 This was and remains one of my key concerns about OSM as a project.  
 I've
 said before and I'll say again: we need a way of asserting this  
 area is
 complete (for one or more definitions of completeness).

I see your concerns. Having some kind of completeness test and be  
able to say : this area is 'complete' would be a strong point.
On the other hand, is Wikipedia complete? I don't think so. Nothing  
is compete:)


 Incidentally, this is exacerbated by the lazy rendering rule for  
 Mapnik

What do you mean by 'lazy' rule?  AFAIK, all available hardware is  
working hard day an night :)

 - I was puzzled when someone said to me the other day why is this
 housing estate not connected to the rest of the road network?. It  
 was;
 but adjacent Mapnik tiles were inconsistent (both laterally and by  
 zoom
 level - and this wasn't a recently mapped area). You may not think  
 this
 matters, but I think this is a public face and it causes further
 confusion and mistrust.

We can certainly improve here. Suggestions ?

Hello everyone,

There is now a new version of the srtm2shp utility which generates

This version should work anywhere across the world, in contrast to  
earlier versions which were a bit of a mess and only worked in the  
UK. So if you're interested in creating a Freemap-like site for  
your own country, this is a good place to start.


Main todo is dealing with SRTM voids in mountainous areas.

 No, it works on postgis db which is populated with osm2pgsql from

 Yes, I know that. I meant that it is coming from planet, not

 So perhaps use the planet diffs to determine areas which have  
 changed and proactively mark all such areas dirty.
 The problem is how to merge planet diff into postgis , I think  
 Jonb has done some work/research in this area.
 Are there existing tools (osmosis?) that given a planet diff would  
 return 'dirty' areas?

 Everything listed in a planet diff is by definition dirty, yes. I  
 don't think you;d need to change the rendering process at all -  
 keep on converting the full planet to database; just have a new  
 means for marking dirty areas - derived from the lat/lons of all  
 nodes in the planet diff corresponding to the current planet, plus  
 the lat/lons of all nodes of all ways listed in the diff.

Marking 'dirty' areas by processing planet diff sounds reasonable but  
we only generate diffs weekly, afaik.
My understanding is that generating planet and planet diffs takes  
very long time at the moment which brings us back to the eternal
quest of improving main DB. I'm not even suggesting to use postgresql :D

[OSM-talk] curves

2008-01-03 Thread Artem Pavlenko
Hello,

Perhaps, not well know fact but Mapnik can render bezier curves. The  
reason it is not being used is the lack of support for curves in  
common GEO formats.
I'm adding support for on-fly 'smooth' polygons/lines , which can be  
controlled by providing smooth parameter (0.0 - 2.0)  i.e:

  Rule
   Filter[natural] = 'lake' or [natural] = 'water'/Filter
   MaxScaleDenominator500/MaxScaleDenominator
   PolygonSymbolizer
 CssParameter name=fillwater_color;/CssParameter
CssParameter name=smooth1.0/CssParameter
  /PolygonSymbolizer
 /Rule

It is very fast and you can see the result : http:// 
artem.dev.openstreetmap.org/files/smooth_1.0.png
(note that text following curve as well)

I know tah has been using bezier curves by pre-processing geometries  
for while.

What people think about explicitly supporting curves as a part of  
geometry model? This way we can model the world better.

Thoughts?

Artem

P.S. Are there some hints (tags) in OSM that can be used for to  
smooth or not?
Also, are there are examples where it does work well and where it  
doesn't?

Absolutely!

 Have you any thoughts on using this for e.g. tunnels? i.e. where you
 have a large number of style rules (e.g. roads) and you want to say
 do all of that again, but this time dotted when adding 'and tunnel =
 yes' to the selector, without having to verbosely repeat all the road
 rules again? I'm starting to find that with the cycle stuff, with
 proposed routes etc, that the rules are fairly repetitive. There might
 be a clever way to implement this concept using these entities, but
 was wondering if you'd thought it through already for me.
No, haven't thought about this, yet:) But it looks like entities

[OSM-talk] SRTM relief

2008-01-02 Thread Artem Pavlenko
Hello lists,

Sometime last year I was inspired by http://www.srtm.com and I even  
contacted developer to see if we can use SRTM derived relief maps in  
OSM.
I don't remember all details but reply was somewhat ambiguous:  yes  
OSM can use pre-rendered tiles from the site above, source code (in  
Java ) is a bit messy, cause my crazy mate coded something ...
Anyway, while srtm.com tiles look good on its own, colour scheme is  
not suitable for overlaying with OSM data IMHO. So I thought it would  
be fairly straight forward to implement something from scratch.

Here is what I'm thinking about - a c++ command line app, which given  
bounding box in geographic coordinate system (WGS84) would read  
compressed raw SRTM files and output 'nice' looking maps (tiles) in  
specified projection (I only care about Mercator and OS NatGrid but  
others will work as well).

Here is more detailed feature list:

1. highly configurable
2. all steps needed to produce final relief map included (relief,  
blending , warping  etc)
3. read raw compressed SRTM directly
4. easy to add new algorithms
5. using GIL from Adobe for accessing pixels and implementing algos.
6. mapnik and OSM ready
7. perhaps it can be used for outputting contours as well (?)

I've coded a prototype based on excellent posting on http:// 
perrygeo.net/wordpress/?p=7 and I'm looking for a good color scheme  
that would work for the whole planet, any pointers?

Here is some test outputs:

http://artem.dev.openstreetmap.org/files/relief_osgb.png
http://artem.dev.openstreetmap.org/files/srtm_relief.png

(red pixels are voids and I'm yet to fill them, did someone mentioned  
some good algorithms a few months ago?)

The kind of reliefs I think might work well for OSM are gmap terrain  
or perhaps Yahoo style.
Any ideas or comments? Cartographers?

Thanks in advance
Artem

See the park in the S-W corner: leisure=park, AND=1013. This  
has a

long N-S segment joining it to another area instead of being closed.

I'd be tempted to use the libavl binary tree. It should be more

some nodes (having a ND_ID) in the AND data appear to be a way (or
area). This would result in a problem: to which point does the ID  
belong

to...

second problem: some (lat,lon) coordinates appear as different nodes
having a different ID, so an easy lookup is not possible for checking
the direction of a one-way street (which is not always the  
direction of

the and-shape...).

third problem: one-way streets have to be corresponding to the  
from-ID
and to-ID and not to the shape direction (requires reversing  
segments,

etc).

compared to that, merging of ways is only a tiny problem...

I have to leave now for a party, so feel free to submit a patch  
for the

b-tree improvement. That was source-code I was looking for!

greetz,
Marc

Did you manage to convert the whole dataset?

I'm using latest v5.


It's important that you have enough memory. 2G is probably the
minimum. If you have less, then 2AND doesn't fit in memory and you
will have to wait forever while your operating system is busy swapping
things in and out.

Hi Jeroen,

I understand that current and2osm implementation is memory hungry.
I just have a feeling it can be improved and this will benefit  
everyone in the longer run. NL data is fairly small in comparison to  
other countries.

Could you share *.osm file , then :)

 Here is the .osm generated by and2osm version 5:
