Re: [OSM-talk] OSM maps in 3D

2008-07-18 Thread Stefan Zeller
At least I'm interested in a Java framework to render maps respective layers 
from OSM data. Then I dream of an easy configuration of render rules. Better: 
The rules can be extracted out of the features pages of the 
wiki.openstreetmap.org! Then any feature change of the community would change 
the rendering..

Hi Igor,

that looks really nice :-).

Re: [OSM-talk] online routing service with osm data

2008-05-30 Thread Stefan Zeller
Wow, its really easy to handle, even if I couldn't get some information in the 
"Get information"-mode -- at least in the center of Berlin.

But a problem turned out with calculating the route for pedestrians. The 
routing mechanism doesn't route along some roads. In
http://data.giub.uni-bonn.de/openrouteservice/?zoom=15&lat=6889335.08669&lon=1486725.17222&layers=0B0
is the problem the red main road (Hauptstraße). The pedestrian way goes all way 
through Bülowstraße in the north, while the shortest route goes through all 
other roads.

Obviously, not all 'highways' allow pedestrian to walk on. Or how is it 
thought? It's quite interesting, because I never tagged a road as allowed for 
pedestrians...

Greetings,
Stefan

[OSM-talk] street directory from OSM data

2008-05-08 Thread Stefan Zeller
Hello,

I'm quite curious if there is already a possibility to generate a street
directory for a part of the OSM data in order to have a useful street
map of a city. Is it? I've looked a bit but I didn't find something.

If there is no such a program I'll going to program it. My idea is to
define a grid on a rectangle part of the OSM data (a city for example).
Then, with giving every box in the grid a tag (like on chess board),
just parse the OSM data and assign streets which are lying
geographically in a certain box to the tag of that box. As an
application, this directory could be printed next to a map. On that map,
sure, a layer with the grid must be printed.

What do you think?

cheers,
Stefan
