Hi, I am creating map key automatically on my MTB maps - http://mtbmap.cz (tab Legend). It is still full of cartographic and rendering mistakes, but it is just a matter of time to fix it. It is created automatically from mapnik xml style file for each zoom level. There is only extra "name" attribute created once by hand in each Rule element.
I can provide any other details if anyone is interested. Source codes are here (app styles): https://github.com/mattesCZ/mtbmap Cheers, Martin 2013/9/17 Peter K <peat...@yahoo.de> > Thanks Yves for the pointer! > > Also the cloudmade support brought another project to my attention: > http://humangeo.github.io/leaflet-dvf/ > > See below where it reads: *Legends - Useful for visually informing users > about the dynamic styles associated with your L.DataLayer instances* > and > *L.Control.Legend - Add this control to your map to automatically display > a dynamic legend for any L.DataLayer based instance that you add to your map > * > > Regards, > Peter. > > I spent some time 3 years ago on the subject, and came out with that: > https://github.com/yvecai/RenderLegend > Unfortunately, the demo website that was showing mapkeys for various > styles, in various languages, and changing when zooming the map is not > anymore. > > It's not usefull to try to create the legend automatically from a style. > It was in xml at the time, but I doubt today's css change a lot in this > matter: you'll need a full fledged sql parser. > I ended up with this as the entry point: > https://github.com/yvecai/RenderLegend/blob/master/legend_compact.xml > This kind of file should probably come in 2 version: a short one and a > to-be-complete one. > > Hope this helps, > Yves > > On 09/16/2013 11:55 AM, Peter K wrote: > > Hi, > > is there a kind of a standard or suggestion on how to retrieve the map > key?
