[OSM-dev] Request for help: libosmscout

2009-09-10 Thread Tim Teulings
Hello! I had taken an increasing interest in the data and software side of OpenStreetMap over the last half year, quickly resulting in some hacking on data analysis, map drawing and routing, leading to a C++ library which is already usable (but still far form complete) and is designed to handle

[OSM-dev] Need special data extracts

2010-02-21 Thread Tim Teulings
Hello! For a Open Source project idea of mine I need vector data (with a good enough resolution to display a country on screen, so no high resolution stuff) for * Continent borders (earth shape) * Country borders (together with country name) * Country capitals with position and name * Big

Hello! Because of you Gruß, I guess you are speaking german. Try: Yes (Bonn) :-) http://www.geofabrik.de/data/download.html This as far as I know does not give me the required information. It contains extras of the planet.osm by country (and partly smaller). So if I want the position of

Hello! (ah, another german :-)). I have not yet found a more convinient way than downloading a planet.osm You may want to query the XAPI for the relevant data http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Xapi Unlike the main API which restricts queries to 0.25 square degrees, XAPI allows much

Hello! in every country, in several counties, in certain towns, there are properties characteristical for some object types of a certain kind. Using boundary objects, one could create a geographical-bound css-like object containing the tags to be used as defaults to overlay each such

[OSM-dev] GSoC Suggestion: test.osm suite

2010-03-15 Thread Tim Teulings
Hello! During my work on libosmscout I had the (obvious) idea to test the various implementation aspect of my library against or (or multiple) defined *.osm files. This would have included testing for functionality like rendering things like bridges, tunnels, layers and symbols but also routing

2010-11-30 Thread Tim Teulings
Hallo! Why this mentality? It is trivial to implement a decompression algorithm and some work better than others. Sounds like complaining about stuff you don't have to care about. I would not implement decompression myself, I have better things to do. Thus I would a library for this. A

Re: [OSM-dev] OSM formats optimised for client-side vector rendering?

2011-02-17 Thread Tim Teulings
Hello! However I'm wondering if there is any consensus on a standard OSM data format optimised for vector rendering. There seems to be the OSM Mobile No, as for the reason other people already have mentioned. For libosmscout (clientside *offline* map rendering) the data format requires: * As

Hello, After days of efforts and workarounds, I decided to give up because this mapsforge thing i loved is still too buggy. Also, the project has very little activity since mid-2013 and it seems unlikely that these issues will ever be fixed. If you are still there… thanks for reading all

Re: [OSM-dev] Building routable graph from OSM data

2015-03-22 Thread Tim Teulings
Hello, I am looking for library that is processing OSM data into routing graph. This graph will be later processed by my program so tight integration with existing routing engine is unneeded and unwanted. libosmscout (libosmscout.sf.net) does generate a routing graph from a parsed *.osm

to help me getting started with it. I'm Tim Teulings, the main author (but in recent times not the only author) of libosmscout. I wrote the project idea and also likely would be your mentor (though the rest of the libomscout community will likely help, too). Hello and welcome to Ope

Hello Christoph, when it comes to read raw OSM dumps it's quite straightforward to parse nodes: their geometry properties can be read alongside with their tags. When it comes to linestrings and relations it is more complicated to access their geometry: the geometry of referenced nodes needs to

Hello everybody, Libosmium is not what you are looking for here. There are way too many things you'd have to implement yourself on top of libosmium. Have a look at https://github.com/Framstag/libosmscout , maybe that's something for you. Right. Libosmscout gives offers you most of the

Hello Kyle, Yeah, I sent my reply to Jochen before I realized everything that libosmscout implements, like Jochen says in the description of libosmium it's meant for data manipulation, not for navigation. Libosmscout does everything that I need for my application. You and Jochen are both
