Another way could be as a TMS. Use this code and save it as a XML file. >From QGIS add as a Raster layer:
<GDAL_WMS> <Service name="TMS"> <ServerUrl>http://tile.openstreetmap.org/${z}/${x}/${y}.png</ServerUrl> </Service> <DataWindow> <UpperLeftX>-20037508.34</UpperLeftX> <UpperLeftY>20037508.34</UpperLeftY> <LowerRightX>20037508.34</LowerRightX> <LowerRightY>-20037508.34</LowerRightY> <TileLevel>18</TileLevel> <TileCountX>1</TileCountX> <TileCountY>1</TileCountY> <YOrigin>top</YOrigin> </DataWindow> <Projection>EPSG:900913</Projection> <BlockSizeX>256</BlockSizeX> <BlockSizeY>256</BlockSizeY> <BandsCount>3</BandsCount> <Cache /> </GDAL_WMS> This code was taken from http://www.3liz.com/blog/rldhont/index.php?post/2012/07/17/OpenStreetMap-Tiles-in-QGIS, so maybe you should take a look at this source. The time I tried it worked well, just be careful with projections as always. 2014-04-02 14:42 GMT-06:00 Ross McDonald <r...@mixedbredie.net>: > Hi Jonathan, > > You could use the OSM GB WMS to bring in tiles in EPSG:27700 if need be. > > Get it here: http://www.osmgb.org.uk/osm-gb-wiki/index.php/WMS and add > it as a new WMS source. > > Cheers > > Ross > > On 02/04/14 12:34, Saber Razmjooei wrote: > > Hi Jonathan, > > > > > > > > See the following tickets for problem with the OpenLayers plugin and > > QGIS Master: > > > > http://hub.qgis.org/issues/9626 > > > > http://hub.qgis.org/issues/9649 > > > > > > > > Meanwhile, you probably can download the relevant tiles and style them, > > which is not very convenient! > > > > > > > > Cheers, > > > > Saber > > > > > > > > > > > > *From:*qgis-user-boun...@lists.osgeo.org > > [mailto:qgis-user-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] *On Behalf Of *Jonathan > Moules > > *Sent:* 02 April 2014 12:27 > > *To:* qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org > > *Subject:* [Qgis-user] OpenStreetMap in QGIS > > > > > > > > Hi List, > > > > So, I know that QGIS is supposed to integrate nicely with OSM, however > > I'm trying to use the "OpenLayers Plugin" 1.1.2 but it seems prone to > > crashing QGIS (2.3 - nightly snapshot) and never actually loads any of > > the mapping. > > > > > > So how do I get OSM as a baselayer in QGIS?
