I'm pretty sure that's the one we used.

Actually, it's just the standard mapnik styles from the download as far as
colours are concerned - we've not yet done any serious editing to it (except
for hiding some overlays at some zoom levels).  It doesn't look like the
actual style files that the OSM site uses are available (or if they are,
they're not easy to find).  We will be making changes over the next few
months as we tune things, though.

 It looks pretty good, I like the colour scheme you've got going. Just
 a few things don't fit in though - highway=service is a dark grey that
 looks out of place, and is hard to see in PhotoMap w/StreetMap since
 it's a similar colour to bitumen It's also visible at lower zoom
 levels than highway=residential, which you can see best on the Terrain
 view with StreetMap. You've swapped the colours of bike paths and
 footpaths compared to the standard OSM Mapnik view. The colour of
 streams/rivers is a bit dark and not blue enough IMHO.

[talk-au] NearMap now have OSM opaque maps as well as overlays

2010-04-01 Thread Ben Last
Hi all

Thought you might like to know that NearMap now have OSM data as opaque maps
as well as transparent overlays on our PhotoMaps.  OSM data's in for the
whole world (currently from the 17/2/10 planet file, now importing the
24/3/10 file).

You may need to force your browser to refresh (Ctrl-F5) to see the new
options.
