Re: [OSM-talk] OSM-TileDownload - Python app to easily create maps
Hi, We also have a compose.py script in Modest Maps that does something similar from the command line: http://modestmaps.mapstraction.com/trac/browser/trunk/py/compose.py I'll have a look at it. There's also http://opensteetmap.gryph.de/bigmap.cgi which again dammit! Why I didn't notice this? I prefer local apps, because you never know what is stored(and how long) if you use internet apps and services. q000te PS: planned features for the next release: - ability to switch between 'Mapnik', 'Osmarender' and 'Cycle Map' - convert the colored map into grey-tones for b/w lp's - integrated browser via QtWebKit for easier map selection (or in the following release) ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Are you aware that the 'export' tab feature on the main site lets you do something similar but with an easier selection of the bounding box and a choice of map layers and output formats? It does have its limits though. It prevents you obtaining anything larger than about 2000x2000 pixels. Jon ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

There's also http://opensteetmap.gryph.de/bigmap.cgi which again requires you to input tile coordinates (or paste any tile URL into the Advanced box to start). Then you get a map tile display and a menu that allows you to shrink/expand the selection. (There's also a hidden feature where you can add a scale=nnn parameter to the URL and it will re-scale all tiles to a width of nnn pixels, to give you better overview over large areas). When finished, you can either print from your browser or download a perl script that will then download all tiles and make one giant PNG from them. I regularly use that to create 8000x5000 PNGs for poster printing, and the CGI source is of course available for everyone who wants to improve it.

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Because of the 2000 pixels limitation of the 'export' tab I wrote the app. opensteetmap.gryph.de returns an site not found error.. q000te Frederik Ramm schrieb: Hi, Jon Burgess wrote: Are you aware that the 'export' tab feature on the main site lets you do something similar but with an easier selection of the bounding box and a choice of map layers and output formats?

We also have a compose.py script in Modest Maps that does something similar from the command line: http://modestmaps.mapstraction.com/trac/browser/trunk/py/compose.py You can feed it a variety of input: (lat, lon) center, desired zoom level and pixel dimensions; (lat, lon) bbox and pixel dimensions; (lat, lon) bbox and desired zoom level. -mike.

[OSM-talk] OSM-TileDownload - Python app to easily create maps
Hi! I use OSM for a while, great work! And in the last few days i wrote a little Python app, which makes it easy to create maps(png format) from OSM, without to setup an Server or copy the planet.osm and so on..
