[OSM-talk] Maxspeed classification example: WFS vectors on top of Mapnik raster map

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Thanks to Jon Burgess and others, the recompiled Windows executable 
osm2pgsql.exe also Windows users can now import any tags they want into PostGIS 
database.  As an example about what that feature could be used for I uploaded a 
simple image visualising maxspeed tags of streets of Helsinki.  See 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Image:OSM_cross_kitchen.jpg.

It looks like an inherent limit in the shapefile format. Shapefiles
store the column data in a DBF format file which only supports 10
characters for each field name:

from http://www.dbf2002.com/dbf-file-format.html

"Field Subrecords Structure
Byte offset 0 - 10
Field name width with a maximum of 10 characters. If less than 10, it is
padded with null characters (0x00)."
