Peter,
A great service. It'll certainly help me with keeping track of where extra details still need to be mapped. I've noticed these small issues: - Ferry routes appear to be highlighted in red on the Water layer, but this doesn't match anything in the key. http://www.itoworld.com/product/data/ito_map/main?view=3 <http://www.itoworld.com/product/data/ito_map/main?view=3&bbox=100067.247138 86814,6641995.275980514,184201.48415728885,6686900.195601286&layers=&base_st yle=&clear_map_history=true> &bbox=100067.24713886814,6641995.275980514,184201.48415728885,6686900.195601 286&layers=&base_style=&clear_map_history=true - At zoom level 3 on the Water layer it appears to load overlay tiles for that layer, but also displays the "You need to zoom in further to view the overlay layer" warning. http://www.itoworld.com/product/data/ito_map/main?view=3 <http://www.itoworld.com/product/data/ito_map/main?view=3&bbox=58000.1299815 7775,6619542.830379137,226268.60401842726,6709352.669620863&layers=&base_sty le=&clear_map_history=true> &bbox=58000.12998157775,6619542.830379137,226268.60401842726,6709352.6696208 63&layers=&base_style=&clear_map_history=true - Schools with names are incorrectly bordered with red (as Steve Doerr has also just pointed out): http://www.itoworld.com/product/data/ito_map/main?view=6 <http://www.itoworld.com/product/data/ito_map/main?view=6&bbox=119108.430780 305,6666754.055789617,124366.820593955,6669560.613265983&layers=&base_style= &clear_map_history=true> &bbox=119108.430780305,6666754.055789617,124366.820593955,6669560.613265983& layers=&base_style=&clear_map_history=true A layer showing lighting would also be very useful. I realise that there's a similar layer on the Wikimedia Toolserver, but it doesn't seem to get updated: http://toolserver.org/~osm/styles/?layers=B000F0TF0000F0FFF0000 <http://toolserver.org/~osm/styles/?layers=B000F0TF0000F0FFF0000&zoom=13&lat =51.28253&lon=1.08301> &zoom=13&lat=51.28253&lon=1.08301 Cheers, Gregory From: Peter Miller [mailto:peter.mil...@itoworld.com] Sent: 18 March 2011 14:13 To: Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org Subject: [Talk-GB] new ITO Map service in beta ITO are pleased to announce a set of new 'overlay maps' for OpenStreetMap which can highlights some of the data layers, such as speed limits, highway lane widths, whether rivers are navigable and if buildings have addresses etc. The service is still very much in beta and may suffer if many people jump on it at the same time but lets see what happens. The service is available here: http://www.itoworld.com/product/data/ito_map/main And a wiki description is available here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/ITO_Map We are starting with a service for a bounding box that included the UK and northern France, Holland, a bit of Germany and up to southern Norway and a separate bounding box including the bay area, SF. The tiles will always be based current daily diff planet data (with a 24 hour processing lag). We should never serve old tiles from old data. If the service is noticeably slow then please give it a break for a hour and then try again. We will roll out the service to more areas as the system beds in and then globally over the next few weeks assuming that the servers hold up. We will gather feedback over the next week or so and then many some changes to the service to iron out any wrinkles. Regards, Peter Miller ITO World Ltd
