I do have one Windows host (even with Cygwin installed) accessible at work. Maybe I can give it a try the other day. However, I don't really know how to distribute the binary. Should the needed libs be shipped along with it? Or ask the users to install enough Cygwin stuff until all library dependencies are fulfilled? > There has to be someone out there which a windows devel environment > would can spend an afternoon fixing any issues I don't think it'll be too hard.

Current versions of gpsdrive (http://www.gpsdrive.de/) and gpsdisplay
(http://lug-owl.de/~jbglaw/gpsdisplay.git) will render their maps
directly off a PostGIS database.
On my laptop, rendering a map in a zoom level useable for in-city
driving will take about 400ms, including parsing of the osm.xml file
and fetching the data from a (possibly almost-hot) PostgreSQL page
cache.
Larger maps, covering half of Germany, will need between about 60 and
250 seconds.

[OSM-talk] [ANN] GPSdisplay v0.1.5
Hi!
This is v0.1.5 of GPSdisplay, downloadable at
wget http://lug-owl.de/~jbglaw/gpsdisplay/gpsdisplay-latest.tar.gz
git clone http://lug-owl.de/~jbglaw/gpsdisplay.git
GPSdisplay is a small application using Mapnik and thus PostGIS to
display your current position, north-wise, with the track you already
left behind you. Position fixes are read off the system DBUS (from
gpsd), a GPX file with the positions as well as POIs can be written
(think of "here's a post box, traffic lights, ..."), Bugs for
OpenStreetBugs can be submitted.
It's also nice for testing osm.xml changes.
Suggestions, complaints and patches welcome :)
MfG, JBG

[OSM-talk] [Talk-de] [ANN] GPSdisplay v0.0.6
Hi!
This is v0.0.6 of GPSdisplay, downloadable at
http://lug-owl.de/~jbglaw/gpsdisplay/gpsdisplay-0.0.6.tar.gz
It can now write GPX files with comments (eg. "Here's a post box") and
write out a small shell script to place OpenStreetBugs for errors you
spot that aren't easily correctable ("There's another street here...")
(GPSdisplay is a small application using Mapnik and thus PostGIS to
display your current position, north-wise. It's *not* a routing
application, nor can it display the track you already went with your
GPS receiver. Simply a small app for data display, playing with Mapnik
styles and an aid to fix the simple bugs you find in reality:-))
Suggestions, complaints and patches welcome :)
MfG, JBG

It may compile eg. under Cygwin, even easily. As an alternative, you'd run it on a Linux box and use the PostGIS database on your Windows box, which should work fine. > but where ... Python-Shell ...

Either run it on a Linux box (Debian even has it as a package), or try to build it with Cygwin.

Re: [OSM-talk] House numbers... One more suggestion

To me, it looks like a difference between modeling every house (and adding some kind of address tag) and describing house numbers along a way for eg. routing purposes. There are other schemes, which could work out quite well I guess: 119 121 ..127 129 131 ... 137 139 ... x1 --> x2 ---> x3 ... 120 122 .. 128 130 132 ... 139 140 House numbers are complicated (in a city like Berlin, you'll probably find non-continuous house numbers, and they not always follow the even-odd-scheme, and the house number on the opposite side of the street may even be in a completely other range...) x1: housenumber_righthand=120-128/+2 housenumber_lefthand=119-127/+2 x2: housenumber_righthand=130-138/+2 housenumber_lefthand=129-137/+2 x3: housenumber_righthand=140-148/+2 housenumber_lefthand=139-147/+2 I only picked two tags and overloading them a bit, overloading them somewhat. It describes a starting house number and the common house number difference on the right/left side of the street. At least for Germany, that could describe house number distribution and the right/left information (which I find *quite* useful!) well enough even for the more exotic cases. However, it'll be somewhat of a pain optimizing a way.

You'd probably start a try using CSV, but if you, as suggested, bring Excel into the game, please remember that it used to have a 64K row limit. That's only a quite little number for nodes... If you want to *work* with access, it is a better idea to import all the data into MySQL or PostgreSQL and access that database from Access.
