Has anyone ever made an whether-overlay for openstreetmap using the Google [1] or the Yahoo API [2]? I think this would be possible with mapnik: * load a planet.osm into some kind of db (or process it in-place with a sax-parser) * find the regions with ZIP, PLZ or whatever * fetch the whether-info for these regions * add the regions to a/the postgis-db * let a renderd render the overlay-tiles using a stylesheet that only displays those whether-regions * server them using openlayers as an overlay
May i'll try this but I wanted to share the idea. Peter [1] http://www.google.com/ig/api?weather=london&hl=en [2] http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/ _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
