Hello everyone, At the Dept of Computer Science here in Maynooth University I currently have two undergraduate students working with me on an internship project. One of the key tasks in this project is to update existing data and contribute new data to OpenStreetMap in the University. Our focus is mapping the changes around the two campus from local knowledge and on-the-ground survey. So we are mapping everything from our new buildings to litter bins, trees, lampposts and sundials! In summary Barry [ http://hdyc.neis-one.org/?barry23] and Stephen [ http://hdyc.neis-one.org/?Stephen_Fay] have really embraced the challenge.
On a daily basis we have a Python script which downloads the OSM XML for Maynooth and stores this file. At the end of their project (late April) we'd like to create a visualization of the changes in the University OpenStreetMap map - maybe on a weekly basis (or even daily) - for the duration of the internship. Has anyone on the IE list done this before? Can anyone give us some pointers on what the best approach should be? We're considering Mapnik and Maperative. Something we could script with Python or similar would be great. Thanks in advance, Peter _______________________________________________ Talk-ie mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie
