I've been setting up a new server and setting up new imagery and other resources for the OSM community.
One that's basically finished is some stuff making use of the City of Kelowna data, published under the PDDL. I've put up a page demoing what I've done at http://tile.paulnorman.ca/kelowna.html. I have an overlay generated from the city road and lanes data and imagery also from the city. A close-up example is http://tile.paulnorman.ca/kelowna.html#20/49.8873/-119.4972. You can switch to an OpenStreetMap background, although this only goes to zoom 19. The road names are in caps because that's how the data comes. I'll be adding these layers to the editors soon, once I make certain everything is stable and make a few setup tweaks. Along those lines, don't be too surprised if there are intermittent issues while I get everything setup! I'm also thinking of asking Firefishy to point tile.openstreetmap.ca at the host because I plan on putting a number of Canadian layers there. I know there is some desire for the City of Nanaimo imagery and other imagery licensed under OGL variants, but until we figure out if their licenses are compatible with the ODbL I'm holding off because we can't use them with OpenStreetMap yet. Technical details: The imagery is an ECW file, served and cached with mapproxy in front of mapserver. The overlay data is downloaded and imported into postgresql with a script, cleaned up in postgres, and then served and cached with mapproxy and rendered with mapnik. The relevant scripts are at https://github.com/osm-ca/road-overlay-scripts and https://github.com/osm-ca/mapproxy-config-faramir. _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
