I hope any of the machines I have available at this moment can handle it =) > (3) Remove any references to boundary and admin_level in the osm.xml > stylesheet I checked first of the stylesheets from: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Stylesheet and it doesn't have any references to 'admin_level'. Also single reference to boundary doesn't look like administrative borders. I think I have enough information about setting up rendering and mostly need some advise on customizing the stylesheet. On the first stage I need: - no country/state borders - no borders for minor administrative units (provinces etc.) - no labels with country names also would really like: - no emphasis on capital cities for example by default on zoom level 5 only capital cities seams to get displayed, I would like to remove them and eventually have them appear according to their actual population and not political status. than to balance back with some reference features + add emphasis on major rivers, especially on zoom levels ~5 Would really appreciate all clues on making such customizations to map stylesheet! BTW http://www.opencyclemap.org has no borders and no special emphasis on capitals, anyone knows where I can find their stylesheet to compare? ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

You want to render your own maps from OSM data: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Rendering http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Creating_your_own_tiles Then you will want to display them on a website: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_on_your_own_website On 19 April 2010 08:13, elf Pavlik wrote: > Hello, > > I want to setup a server which will serve alternative tiles to those used > on osm.org > > I would like to use in my projects tiles without any administrative > borders or names of administrative units (like states/countries, provinces > etc.) > > I welcome any help with information about howto or actuality configuring > rendering of such tiles. > > In next stage I would like to work on map tiles putting more emphasis on > natural reference points like rivers, mountain ranges etc. > > One of the projects I would like to use such tiles which don't divide > Earth into countries has very early stage (pre-alpha) webpage at: > http://world-peace-game.net > > If possible please contact me directly on my email address so I won't miss > the answer within the see of posts on this mailing list =) > > Wishing everyone on northern hemisphere great spring and summer, > and relaxing fall and winter on southern, > > elf Pavlik > http://wwelves.org/perpetual-tripper > > ___ > talk mailing list > talk@openstreetmap.org > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk > -- Gregory o...@livingwithdragons.com http://www.livingwithdragons.com ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] Making alternative tiles with no administrative borders or administrative names
Hello, I want to setup a server which will serve alternative tiles to those used on osm.org I would like to use in my projects tiles without any administrative borders or names of administrative units (like states/countries, provinces etc.) I welcome any help with information about howto or actuality configuring rendering of such tiles. In next stage I would like to work on map tiles putting more emphasis on natural reference points like rivers, mountain ranges etc. One of the projects I would like to use such tiles which don't divide Earth into countries has very early stage (pre-alpha) webpage at: http://world-peace-game.net If possible please contact me directly on my email address so I won't miss the answer within the see of posts on this mailing list =) Wishing everyone on northern hemisphere great spring and summer, and relaxing fall and winter on southern, elf Pavlik http://wwelves.org/perpetual-tripper ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
