Re: [OSM-talk] Fwd: Haiti Field requirement: Haiti OSM maps in PDF
In case you haven't seen these, the folks at Delta State University have been making PDFs with the MGRS grid of much of the main earthquake zone (and using some OSM data)--see them here: http://edcftp.cr.usgs.gov/pub/data/disaster/201001_Earthquake_Haiti/data/map_products/MISSISSIPPI_DELTA_STATE_MAPS/ (esp. see the Haiti_6Kscale_8511A4size_Geopdfimage_Atlas_vDSU20100123 series) They've been using ESRI products to produce the maps, but it would probably be worthwhile to talk to them if you want to do something similar.

[OSM-talk] Fwd: Haiti Field requirement: Haiti OSM maps in PDF
Just picking up on this, the chatter I've heard suggests that it would be *very* helpful to overlay printed maps with the NATO MGRS grid. (MapOSMatic generates its own arbitrary grid: pretty, but not as useful in this situation.) @spara came up with this tidy lat/long and MGRS location finder, so the code is out there: http://haiti.crisiscommons.org/location/ Has anyone got further with a clean printable style? -andyg ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Re: [OSM-talk] Fwd: Haiti Field requirement: Haiti OSM maps in PDF
Hi excellent folks, I figure the PDF product will be very slow on small mobile devices, and still slow on normal PC's, but I feel that is no showstopper, as you gain all the detail information, on a disconnected cheap device. So I think if the osmarender stylesheet would be adapted slightly to put the "caption" of cities, suburbs, villages big enough to be readable on a low zoom level (entire map), then that map would be really easy to use I guess.

This is superb, incredibly fast (!!!) and exactly what I looked for, just that that I will need several PDF's, this is no issue. The Street index feature is just awesome. Thank you so much!!! :-) So please ignore the rest of this email, if you have priority tasks, consider the "ticket" as "solved". ;-) I tried on MapOSMatic a bounding box of (having just one PDF would be nice) 18.041 <= lat <= 18.732 -72.71 <= lon <= -71.732 The web service says, that the "bounding box is too large". Within this bounding box Port-au-Prince contains 95% of the data. So if PaP is possible to render, then technically that chosen large area does no big difference, as it is no uncompressed bitmap. I did another try with osmarender, as the 22 MByte OSM file I exported in parts via josm might be inconsistent somehow. So I took the larger "whole-Haiti" (80MByte, http://labs.geofabrik.de/haiti/2010-01-17-02-44.osm.bz2 ) file to let it render, but it took 2 Gigs of RAM and after 90 minutes the process died on my oldish machine. I use xsltproc -> libxml2, no Java as XSLT backend (is this ok?) for osmarender. Also, if you have any ideas, to make the PDF creation process possible on a lowtech machine, thank you for your ideas.

Re: [OSM-talk] Fwd: Haiti Field requirement: Haiti OSM maps in PDF
Cool, Questions: 1 - is there the options to print on other types of paper i.e A4; 11x17. As well as the standard 8.5x11. (i think thats what the aid worker was asking) 2 - is there a 'map key' printed on the 1st page? Ie. The symbol of the tent means 'temporary camp' & the thick "-" means 'highway' & the grey heavy line means 'road not usable' & symbol of a 'plus sign with circle around' means '1st aid area'. 3 - Having 'map key' which is available in the Oo Draw format, will allow us to make custom versions listing for different themes, where the png image can be droped in. (thats what im going to work on, or modify if someone else does before me.)

[OSM-talk] Fwd: Haiti Field requirement: Haiti OSM maps in PDF
Oops, forgot to send this to the main list. ~ and in OpenOffice Draw, a PDF can be easily made. -- Forwarded message -- From: Sam Vekemans Date: Sun, 17 Jan 2010 00:55:31 -0800 Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] Haiti Field requirement: Haiti OSM maps in PDF To: "ce-test, qualified testing bv - Gert Gremmen" Im at work (job) right now. Can we make an OpenOffice draw template & add in a map key? -showing what the mapnik icons show/represent. Also, Showing numbers as (tranparent jpg's) so they can be moved around on the page and cross-referenced in a space on the 2nd page of the maposmatic sheet. If you dont understand, thats OK, i'll make it myself. (after im done with the transparent contour map & mapsource installer) Sam On 1/17/10, ce-test, qualified testing bv - Gert Gremmen wrote: > Maposmatic seems to do the job: > > > > http://www.maposmatic.org/ > > > > Gert > > > > Van: talk-boun...@openstreetmap.org [mailto:talk-boun...@openstreetmap.org] > Namens nicolas chavent > Verzonden: zondag 17 januari 2010 2:01 > Aan: talk@openstreetmap.org; crisismapp...@googlegroups.com > CC: CJ Hendrix > Onderwerp: [OSM-talk] Haiti Field requirement: Haiti OSM maps in PDF > > > > Hi there. > > Below a post on the topic getting Haiti OSM maps in PDF for direct use in > the field and circulation in fora such as relief web.
