Previously someone suggested that some of the work to calculate information should be dealt with in pre-processing, which is probably a sensible idea to reduce the time to render tiles that aren't already cached, so a lookup table might not be such a bad idea. As for operator logos, we recently imported a bunch of BP amenity=fuel locations and I was only pondering how it would be nice to make them render an icon similar to their logo. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
