Hello,
The background of my question is, that I often travel to places where
you do not have access to Internet via data mobile. In my netbook with
FreeBSD I'm using foxtrotGPS and pre-fetched tiles, i.e. they are already
stored in the disk and foxtroGPS makes use of the png-files. There is a
small C-written tool which generates all tiles file names for the two
coordinates of a rectangle you give to that tool.
Than one just uses wget to fetch down the ~1000000 tiles and you have
them stored in the disk for offline usage.
The name structure is the same as in the OSM server, i.e. for example:
9/266/170.png
The OSMTouch app caches the tiles below
/home/phablet/.cache/me.yohanboniface.osmtouch/
and the tiles for that same place has for the OSMTouch the name
osm_100-1-9-266-170.png
Both cover the same region of the map in zoom level 9. So far so good.
I was thinking to copy over the tiles from my netbook to the BQ and just
generating on the fly the correct names osm_100-1-.....
But, I have compared the files and they have a different look and feel (both
attached). Anybody knows why they are different?
Thanks
matthias
