Problem solved, I had of course also made a programming error .. However the osmarender export function is hereby confirmed to be so that the geodetic center asked for is at the center of the projection and consequently of the image and the image mercator density is according to the given tile level, using transformations indicated by the code that I was pointed to. So then you can see the UNINETT and NORDUnet network load map on OSM : https://drift.uninett.no/kartg/last-osm/osm/europe/geo/nuh//maks/ A big thank you to all OSM people !-) I plan to use the osm export function to collect about 70 map images each european night with 1s interval between each and hope that's acceptable. regards Olav > chuss > Olav > > >> Olav Kvittem schrieb: >> >>> Hi, >>> >>> I wonder how I compute the coordinates of the corners of the images >>> received from the web export function >>> for an osmarender image.
