 Hello.

 This has been discussed[1] some time ago but the answer is somehow
 unclear to me. I understand that EPSG:900913 is (may be?) a crappy
 projection[2]. However, I still need a map of Poland at zoom 6-8 warped
 to EPSG2180. How to use geotifcp (how to prepare metadata) to embed
 appropriate information in an image exported from OpenStreetmap?


you have to provide an additional text file with the parameters for
your tif (tfw, world file). The file is described e.g. in Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_file

cheers,
Martin

Are you sure. There is a paramtere named pixel height which is assumed
to be constant along the image. In Mercator projection this isn't true
pixels in the north represent less degrees than those in the south.

I would capture first the image of your area by using native EPSG:900913
projection with gdal_translate and WMS driver as described at the bottom of the
document http://gdal.org/frmt_wms.html.  As a result you will have on a disk a
geotiff file which is simple to re-project further into EPSG:2180 with gdalwarp.

That's it. Thank you.

For future reference

(edit the xml file and set tile level to 7)

gdal_translate -of GTiff -outsize 2014 1959 -projwin 1373199.36 7754019.75 
3121531.52 6052748.56 frmt_wms_openstreetmap_tms.xml openstreetmap.tif

or alternatively

gdal_translate -of GTiff -srcwin 17500 1 1440 1340 
frmt_wms_openstreetmap_tms.xml openstreetmap.tif

and then

gdalwarp -t_srs EPSG:2180 openstreetmap.tif plepsg2180.tif

and finally

gdal_translate -of GTiff -srcwin 626 101 1367 1368 plepsg2180.tif 
plepsg2180a.tif

to get rid of black borders. This way I get a map between 0 and 2^20
meters in PUWG-1992.

There is no such thing as a crappy projection. Every projection is a
compromise, and every projection has its purpose and its ill-use. It
may be a poor projection for OSM. I don't know.
