Re: [OSM-talk] Shameless Promotion/New OSM Renderer

2010-08-11 Thread John Harvey

Sorry - I was trying to be funny.

The point was there is no code in my renderer or data pipeline written 
by you or anyone else but me.  For instance I don't use Osm2pgsql, 
Osmosis, Mapnik or Osmarender.


Generally a standard gets stronger the more independent implementations 
there are.

I think failed to parse that sentence. What exactly is the connection 
between myself and your renderer? Do I get royalties?

Your shameless promotion failed.  I couldn’t read it properly.

I am more shameless to ask if you can make one for India or Indian

[OSM-talk] Shameless Promotion/New OSM Renderer

2010-08-11 Thread John Harvey




Hey!

I'm one of the many people who make "offline" maps for the
iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch.  I charge for my products but for a limited
time, I'm making one (Atlanta) free:

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/20mb-atlanta-map/id385689407?mt=8

It will go back to being a paid application once the State of the Map
US conference has completed:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_United_States/US_SOTM

Why bother downloading the my App?  I wrote a brand new render engine
for Open Street Map data and there are cool new features to see.  Gone
are bitmap tiles - all data is rendered on the fly using the OpenGL
hardware.  Some new features you don't see every day:

  Labels on ways and features are redrawn every frame to try to
give you the best map
  Multiple views of the same map (Transit Map, Bike Map) using the
same data.
  ~100 times compression over tiles - network bandwidth is tiny. 
We can represent the 5 boroughs of New York in less than 20MB (Apples
limit for app's downloaded over wifi).
  
  Popups for Points of Interest - see more of the metadata
available on POI's.
  No code past planet.osm was written by Frederick Ramm. ;)

I'm still early on in application development - there are bugs with the
rendering and many features in the backlog.  I'd love feedback
(offline) if you have it.

John
