hello everyone, i have a little project which is all about rendering a map of berlin in my own custom-style. i am using a python script that directs to an xml-style sheet thus rendering a png image of my desired section. my data base is the berlin.osm file from geofabrik.de
i understand that the order in which mapnik renders different layers is crucial and formatted my stylesheet accordingly. now i encountered a problem that i just cannot solve. on a little island in the following link there is an area with landuse = residential. i would show it by rendering the islet after the water around it and the residential area above that. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.56664&lon=13.2531&zoom=16&layers=M if i do that, then in the following area there will be a residential area rendered above most part of this lake and other lakes in the area. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.49461&lon=13.28067&zoom=16&layers=M but if i render the water after the residential area of course i won't see the residential area... somehow in the openstreetmap-server this problem (as you can see) does not occur and both places are rendered as supposed, but i dont know how. where is the hidden magic? thanks for any help on this, chris - -- GMX DSL Doppel-Flat ab 19,99 Euro/mtl.!
