Hi Spain & Portugal, **Sorry for this email only being in English. I would appreciate it if someone could translate this message (or summary) for list members.**
I have just switched the default OpenStreetMap.org “Mapnik style” map tiles for tile.openstreetmap.org for Spain and Portugal across to our new rendering server. The new rendering server has been tested and is now ready for production. We’re migrating traffic over region-by-region and Spain & Portugal are the third region to go live (After Australia + New Zealand & Mexico). In addition to new hardware, the rendering server also uses the new “openstreetmap-carto” stylesheets. These are a complete re-write of the XML stylesheets to use CartoCSS, making them easier for our cartographers to work with. Andy Allan’s great talk at State of the Map US described the reason for the stylesheet re-write: http://stateofthemap.us/saturday.html#schedule/saturday/putting-the-carto-into-openstreetmap-cartography The map tiles will be slightly slower at medium-high zooms while the server builds up its cache. The style is designed to look the same as the current XML stylesheet. The “openstreetmap-carto” stylesheet is maintained here: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto Big Thank you to #osm-dev for helping draft this announcement.
