Hi,

There is also a third way which is to open OSM data with GDAL/OGR. Usage:
Add vector layer - Open an OGR supported Vector Layer - path to
OpenStreetMap .xml or .pbf file. OSM does not seem to be listed as a
supported file format at least in QGIS 2.2 but it works still. The manual
page of OSM driver is http://www.gdal.org/drv_osm.html.

True to a certain extent. You must be aware that you cannot directly the OGR 
OSM driver in QGIS if there are more than 100 000 nodes, ways or relations in 
the file (small extracts will work, but possibly with not great performance). 
Above that limit, the file must be processed with ogr2ogr, which will use a 
specific mode to drive the OGR OSM driver (interleaved mode), that QGIS 
doesn't use.

From your first message, it was not clear for me which one you have

Megabytes of data, and you have to set up rendering rules yourself.

The second one should fit your needs better. The OpenLayers plugin had 
some obstacles during the upgrade from QGIS 1.8 to 2.0 and from 2.2 to

don't run with newer versions. Deleting the layer, and adding it should 
work (except for the known bug).

The coordinates in the coordinate window started out in Decimal Degrees (the

Try it this way:

Set project CRS to EPSG:3857, enableing On-the-fly-reprojection
Load the shapefile
Add Openlayers with OSM background.

I am not sure what projection your shapefile is in, but QGIS treats it 
as WGS 84, but the coordinates do not fit to that.


It might help to change in Settings - Options - CRS to 'Prompt for 
CRS' for new layers.

[Qgis-user] OpenStreetMap Error

2014-08-28 Thread Glenn Weller
I have been using Qgis 1.8 for a couple of years and have decided that it is 
time to upgrade. I have installed Qgis 2.2 on my Windows 7 laptop and I can no 
longer use OpenStreetMap. I opened a project I made using Qgis 1.8 and the 
street map layer was no longer there. I then opened the OpenStreetMap (Vector 
-- OpenStreetMap -- Download Data) in Qgis 2.2, left the defaults alone, and 
clicked on the OK button. I received the following error message:

Cannot open output file:

I must be missing either a dependent plug-in or a dll but can find no 
documentation about this error.

I use the OpenStreetmap functionality a lot and it has become a necessity for 
me.

P.S. I also could not use OpenStreetMap with Qgis 2.4 so I uninstalled it and 
tried Qgis 2.2 with the hope that it would not be a problem in an older 
version. No such luck!

By now, QGIS 2.4 is current. The Openstreetmap plugin of QGIS 1.8 did 
not work lately, so it was completely refurnished. As a consequence, 
older projects with OSM data will not work anymore, you have to add OSM 
manually again.

The download area is dependent on the current canvas extent. If that was 
the world, the data provider (Overpass API) will reject your request.


Try with a smaller area of interest, or use a postgis database of your 
country filled with a Geofabrik extract via osm2pgsql, or use the 
Openlayers plugin with an Openstreetmap background. This is always 
available, independent from the size of the area of your interest.




P.S. I also could not use OpenStreetMap with Qgis 2.4 so I
uninstalled it and tried Qgis 2.2 with the hope that it would not be

No, between 2.4 and 2.2 was no big change in the OSM plugin. The 
Openlayers plugin, however, had to be changed at that point.

It's not clear to me from your message whether you're still using the file you

Hi Laura,

I tried it both ways. I started out using the original project I created using 
QGIS 1.8 and, of course, it didn't work. So I recreated the same project using 
QGIS 2.2 and I got the same error.


After playing with plug-ins for a while I found one (TileMapScalePlugin) that 
would add a street layer. However it is lower resolution that I would like and 
the three layers to choose from (osm_bikemaps.xml, osm_landscape.xml, and 
osm_mapnik.xml) are really not what I was looking for.

I also received a response from André who wondered if I was trying to map too 
large an area (like the entire U.S.). I am trying to obtain a Google/Yahoo map

Hi Glenn,

I'm away from my machine that has QGIS installed so I can't recreate the steps 
I used to d/l tiles. Pls take a look at the archives as I know i described it 
there. 

I was only ever able to get it to work for an individual session - when I close 
the .qgs file with the OSM-related work and re-open it the OSM map tiles are 
not there. I have to re-load as a basemap via the Open Layers menu. I thought 
when I had it working in 2.2 that this was not the case. I may be wrong because 
it was only a few weeks between my use of 2.2 and 2.4, which was what broke the 
OSM plug-in for me.

Actually there is a problem with the OpenLayers plugin. For some users
OpenLayer layers aren't restored when opening a project.

See https://hub.qgis.org/issues/10766. I suggested a workaround there,
don't know if it works for others.

Re: [Qgis-user] OpenStreetMap Error

2014-08-28 Thread Laura O'Grady
Thanks for posting the workaround.

Also you may want to look at this thread that includes a post by the OpenLayers 
developer (end of thread) regarding its status.

 Actually there is a problem with the OpenLayers plugin. For some users
 OpenLayer layers aren't restored when opening a project.
 
 See https://hub.qgis.org/issues/10766. I suggested a workaround there,

I also received a response from André who wondered if I was trying to
map too large an area (like the entire U.S.). I am trying to obtain a
Google/Yahoo map for an area in central California that I have been
able to successfully map in QGIS 1.8. I doubt that the area I am
trying to map is too large.



There are two ways to use OSM in QGIS:

1) by downloading OSM raw data with Vector - Openstreetmap
2) by using the Openlayers plugin, which will install into the web menu.

From your first message, it was not clear for me which one you have 
used in the past. The first choice (formerly known as Openstreetmap 
plugin) is restricted in the area, because you will be downloading 
Megabytes of data, and you have to set up rendering rules yourself.


The second one should fit your needs better. The OpenLayers plugin had 
some obstacles during the upgrade from QGIS 1.8 to 2.0 and from 2.2 to 
2.4. That is the reason why old projects with Openlayers background 
don't run with newer versions. Deleting the layer, and adding it should 
work (except for the known bug).


HTH,
André Joost
