Re: [Xastir] Linear scaling for OSM - ANNOUNCEMENT
With zoom=1344 it looks normal, if I zoom in there are some large green blocks mainly south of Sequim using mapnik.geo. With OpenStreetMaps.geo it all looks good. 73, Bob N7XY On Jun 16, 2010, at 3:30 PM, Tom, ve7did wrote: Just looked at the peninsula with mapnik and looks ok. Where exactly are yours missing.

[Xastir] Linear scaling for OSM - ANNOUNCEMENT
The CVS archive has been updated to include code that will scale the OSM bitmap images. This restores the default linear scaling used by Xastir and 'fixes' the area zoom (no changes to area zoom were needed and that part of the code has not been changed). Support for binned zoom levels remains. The scaling mode is selected by choosing map files with .geo (linear) or .osm (OSM binned zoom levels) extensions. I have also added support for additional OSM map styles and provided .geo/.osm files for the styles I know of. For an example of the styles try this URL: http://ojw.dev.openstreetmap.org/StaticMap/?lat=37.3464045507lon=-121.942749023z=13mode=Style; mapnick is the default OpenStreetMap style osmarendar is the default ti...@home style cloudmade* styles are from Cloudmade: http://www.cloudmade.com Known issues: - Area zooms do not work well for binned OSM levels (.osm files) This could probably be fixed, but for now I am making it a low priority. - Text and lines on OSM maps will be aliased (blocky, blurred, missing bits, jagged, ...) to one degree or another for most linear zoom levels. The artifacts will be minimized with the linear zoom level is closest to the OSM level. It may be possible to improve the scaling and reduce the artifacts. Future plans: I am going to shift my work a bit and try to make direct use of the OSM tiled images. This should improve caching, allow off line operation, and provide flexibility for choosing tile servers and/or using custom tiles. I expect that the change to tiled images will take me a while. In the mean time I hope you enjoy the static image OSM version. 73, ...jerry KA6HLD ___ Xastir mailing list Xastir@lists.xastir.org http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
