Hi all,
I am working with a local trail mapping project to see if OSM can provide the 
tools that they require to map out the trails in a mountian resort. Eventually 
they would like to have a map showing all the walking, cycling, cross country 
sking, ATV and snowmobile trails in the area, I believe that this is an 
excellent way to show case OSM and to get them all entering data into the 
database.

I'm looking into the possibility of using Osmarender to output a SVG map 
(which) will then be printed. At present I can envisage how the physical side 
of the map will work (with footways, cycleways, tracks, roads etc), however as 
far as I can see there is no way to get Osmarender to highlight a 
Relation/Route. Prehaps I am missing the magic?

Ideally I would like to do the equivilant of the UK Cycle Map, which 
over-renders the Relation/Route(s) onto the base map:
http://www.gravitystorm.co.uk/osm/?zoom=14&lat=6699525.62319&lon=-31464.02406&layers=B00

It would appear that all their (UK cycle guys') data is stored within the OSM 
database, see:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.437&lon=-0.29509&zoom=15&layers=B0FT


I am not 100% how the project want to format their maps, but the idea of 
numbered sign posts was mentioned. So is there a way of labelling a 
Relation/Route/Stop, so that a renderer can put a number (or text) label over a 
node?

Sort of like the previously feature image:

I spent a while poking around the Wiki and trying to understand the XSL source 
(not my forte), but am still none the wiser. Anyone got any hints/clues for me?

Thanks,
Simon.
