There aren't too many breaks in it overall, especially compared to the west coast of BC, though most of the errors showing there are reversed single way islands that need to be cleaned up yet, see http://tile.openstreetmap.nl/coastlines.html?lat=65.56080039181714&lon=-149.433288568253&zoom=4.

Maemo-mapper can export directly to .gpx (through the 'save track' feature), and as an added bonus defaults to using OSM tiles for the display. No working Java support yet, though there are a few people who've been working towards it slowly from my understanding.

[OSM-talk] Some interesting numbers from planet.osm
I've just put together a small script to generate some statistics from planet.osm, and its produced a few interesting numbers from the February 6 planet dump: -There are 5540 ways with 0 nodes in them -There are 126 ways with 1 node in them -85% of the ways are have between 2 and 20 nodes (21% have 2 nodes only) -There are 9666 ways with more than 500 nodes (from a random sampling most appear to be coastline) -The longest way has 11270 nodes (a piece of coastline that has since been split up) The raw data from the script is available at http://openstreetmap.ca/statistics/february062008.txt, and a dump of all the ways that have more then 500 nodes is at http://openstreetmap.ca/statistics/february062008-longways.txt.

[OSM-talk] New Lakewalker JOSM plugin release
A new version of the lakewalker plugin is now available. This release features a substantial change to the original plugin that Brent Easton put together to interface with Daryl Shpak's python script, in that the actual work of the plugin has been ported to Java and included within the plugin. This means that the Python script is no longer required, and should allow easier use. The native Java version also runs substantially faster, and doesn't get stuck in loops as often as the Python version did. The python script can still be used (via a second menu item) if you already have it installed however. There is one setting change that must be made to use the Java only version, in that the threshold value must be increased (around 90-110 seems to be suitable) due to differences between what Java and Python report the intensity of grey being. You can download the updated plugin via the interface in JOSM, or directly from http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/editors/josm/dist/Lakewalker.jar ----- Jason Reid Web Technical Administrator Faculty of Social Sciences University of Calgary Social Sciences 515 403-220-7903 - ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk

Hardest part is just getting everything installed and working together (as there are a number of dependencies), but overall if you follow the instructions that are out there its not too bad. I've got a partial setup running on openstreetmap.ca (that isn't public yet), but to answer the other questions it should serve as a baseline. The system behind that site is an Opteron 246 with a couple gb of ram, and can re-render all of Canada through Mapnik in under a day. Sweden shouldn't be anywhere near that long.
