Well I took this as an opportunity to learn about renderd and mapnik. As of a few minutes ago, I am rendering tiles for this map on demand using mapnik. This means that you can zoom in as far as you want anywhere in the world. The style has changed slightly, especially at low zoom. It might be a little slower especially if several people are hitting it at once. I'm using mapnik to render straight from a .osm file. This is extremely handy and makes updates as trivial as uploading a small file to the server. However one limitation is that I can only run one rendering thread. The mapnik .osm input plugin is not thread safe and causes renderd to segfault immediately if I set it to more than one thread. I might tinker with it some more at some point to see if I can get it rendering from sqlite or something. But since I'm only dealing with a small data set, it should be pretty responsive even with a single thread. I figure by the time I tweak everything to be just right, all these bot problems will be fixed! :) Right now we're sitting at 3,076 ways left to fix. And keep in mind that for every way rendered on this map, there are probably 10 more bot problems in the area like missing ways, broken topology, etc. So don't just fix what is highlighted and move on, take a look around and smell the nodes. http://ni.kwsn.net/~toby/OSM/maps/redaction.html Toby _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
