[OSM-dev] Minutely diffs.
Hello everyone, I'm trying to setup the OpenStreetMap rails app and the related workflow. I was wondering how the minutely diffs generated? I looked up and came across this bit in the Osmosis documentation - http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis/Detailed_Usage_0.36#--replicate-apidb_.28--repa.29 Are we running Osmosis with --replicate-apidb every minute? Would love to know more. Thank you. Cheers, Sajjad. ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
[OSM-dev] Restarting renderd, mapnik shared object not found.
Hello everyone, I'm following the guide here http://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/building-a-tile-server-from-packages/ to setup a tile server. However, when I restart renderd towards the end of the setup (sudo /etc/init.d/renderd restart), it fails by saying: /usr/bin/renderd: error while loading shared libraries: libmapnik.so.2.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I ran a quick search and came across the troubleshoot page here https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/wiki/InstallationTroubleshooting#linking-errors, but that didn't help much. Interestingly, when I look at my /usr/lib, I see - libmapnik2.so.2.0, libmapnik.so.2.2.0, libmapnik2.so.2.0.0, libmapnik.so.2.2 among others and not libmapnik.so.2.1 Does this mean I've got the wrong version? How do I solve this? Thank you so much. Sajjad. ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev

I'm trying it out now, will give more specifics once it's done and ready to use. This looks promising. I'll also give it a shot. TileStache is another awesome project by Michal Migurski http://tilestache.org/, which is an easy to use, Python based tile server.

There are already a bunch of osm programs in the ubuntu repositories (e.g. josm and osm2pgsql, although the later is rather old), but programs like mod_tile, renderd and tirex are still missing. I wanted to see if I can do that, but then didn't get around to it. So if anyone else wants to try this it would be great. However, to get it into the next long term release 12.04, one would probably need to do this very soon. Hi Kai, I am interested to o this task to include it in the Ubuntu repositary, moreover we can also provide a add on feature of customised map tiles according to the choice of the users rather than the default tiles. Please let me know what should I need to do and what should I need to know?

They mostly got along on their own, following http://weait.com/content/build-your-own-openstreetmap-server, and picking through the wiki, but they definitely could've had an easier time. And we should expect more of this soon, and we want this! Nestoria and StreetEasy switching, the Wired article. Just the beginning. Yes. The time when people are recognising the power of OSM is here. We should welcome everyone. How do we help folks get their tile servers up and running even easier. Here's some suggestions we discussed... 1) Clear instructions, at an easily findable address (outside the wiki, which is hard to follow) (anyone register switch2osm.com? or tryosm.org). Should include some description of the different options, with links for getting into the details ... but at least a clear guide through the well worn path of setting up a tile server. 2) A packaged solution, like a chef recipe, to install everything needed. 3) A VM image for an open source virtualization package, that has everything installed. May not necessarily be for production, but at least make it easy to try things out. 4) Might be an overkilling idea, why not some quick screen casts? I guess videos will be more easier to grasp than guides. Would the EWG be the place to get this together?

[OSM-dev] ./generate_image.py returns error
Hi, I'm trying to setup mapnik again and stuck. This is what I have done so far: 1. Setup the pgsql db named cal_l10n 2. Checked out from Mapnik SVN. 3. Setup Mapnik 4. Ran ./generate_image.py --dbname 'cal_l10n' This return the following error: inc/entities.xml.inc:9: parser warning : PEReference: %layers; not found %layers; ^ Traceback (most recent call last): File ./generate_image.py, line 37, in module mapnik.load_map(m,mapfile) RuntimeError: XML document not well formed: Entity 'layer-admin' not defined (encountered in file 'osm.xml' at line 6571) 5. tried re creating the osm.xml file using ./generate_xml.py, but getting the same error.

Re: [OSM-dev] generate_xml.py not generating osm.xml file?
Dear Akos, I think you have misunderstood the purpose of generate_xml.py generate_xml.py as far as I understand is to prepare the osm dataset (by default osm.xml) ready for rendering. It fetches the style sheets, symbol information etc and modifies the dataset to create the new osm.xml The README coming with mapnik also explains its use.

I did read the README file, but this seems to be a catch-22 here. if it uses osm.xml itself to generate osm.xml - how do you initially create the first osm.xml, from the style sheets / templates?

Dear Akos I did read the README file, but this seems to be a catch-22 here. if it uses osm.xml itself to generate osm.xml - how do you initially create the first osm.xml, from the style sheets / templates? The osm.xml file is a bit confusing in this scenario. You can see that the osm.xml file that came along with Mapnik is not the dataset, rather, it contains certain rules which support the rendering of tiles. You are actually loading the map data into the pgsql db and asking * generate_image.py *or*generate_tiles.py *to generate the image or set of tiles as the case may be. If you want to make some modifications in the styles and fonts for the rendering, you could tweak this rule file. Also note that, Mapnik does not intend you to give the data in xml format, but it reads the data only from the pgsql database. The following link contains pointers to setting up Mapnik and basic rules file modifications http://sajjad.in/mapping/setting-up-mapnik-for-rendering-tiles-in-your-language/ http://sajjad.in/mapping/setting-up-mapnik-for-rendering-tiles-in-your-language/ Hope this helps Cheers -- Sajjad Anwar | http://geohackers.in | Blog: http://sajjad.in | Twitter: geohacker ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
[OSM-dev] GSoC 2010 : OSM Mashup Generator
Hi! This is just to update about my proposal. I'm right now learning RoR and the OpenLayers API. So far, I have made good progress with understanding the OpenLayers API and is pretty much sure that, the mashup generator could be done in RoR. The initial step would be of letting the user to choose the map to be embedded. This could achieved through API request. Please pull in your comments/suggestions on the same! Thanks!

Re: [OSM-dev] GSoC 2010. OpenStreetMap Mashup Generator Project
Glad to hear the responses. Please also take the possibility into account to draw your yown points, lines and shapes onto the map and export them (link to them) into various formats. Drawing lines and shapes on to the map is pretty much possible with OpenLayers API. So, we can include this feature to the to-do list. I could think of some public platform like github, where one can draw points on to the map and another one lines and a third person can then aggregate the feeds of those two maps into their own map, linking to the original sources and receiving updates from them. This would be interesting. People can share the maps easily with their own changes being made. But how many? Let us prioritize the tasks. I'm right away adding it to the ideas page.
