I'm in the middle of a web site overhaul for a town council, and I'd like to
improve the site by using OSM maps for each of the wards. The problem is how to
highlight the relevant area?
I'm not sure that the wards are set up in the relevant area and so I'm wondering
if it's time to move from Potlatch2 which does for the sort of fine tuning I am
normally doing to something else - preferably Linux based :) Something that I
can filter on the type of object I'm looking for?
What I need to do is get up to date with what IS available now. I've got my
mapserver tools all built into the web framework so I can work with raster
images and add overlays, but now is the time to go beyond simply linking
location maps and adding a little more interaction.
A little aside, but in the same general area. My son is now doing google pano
shoots which get added to streetview, but many of the shoots he is doing don't
have a tidy connection to that. I have all of the relevant missing roads on OSM
and would like to add links to our own copies of the images, although simply
making links to the businesses would do for now. Another 'overlay' problem.
Should I be off down openlayers as well? What is the current 'gold standard' here?
