please have a look at the files below: http://www.gary68.de/temp/hofheim.png http://www.gary68.de/temp/hofheim.svg http://www.gary68.de/temp/hofheim.osm http://www.gary68.de/temp/hofheim.gpx you could insert the *.osm in your original osm file and have a render rule for those entries. then you can use a renderer of your choice, like KOSMOS. Don't know if gpx is useful though. and here's the code (you will need the modules too!) - first BETA. no QA took place :-) http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/utils/gary68/distancemap.pl http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/utils/gary68/ any more wishes? ps: i don't know if shapes like elevation lines really make sense here... pps: wiki page will follow! cheers gary68 gerhard On Tue, 2009-07-14 at 13:20 -0400, si...@mungewell.org wrote: > Has anyone done any work in the area of making maps representing 'distance > to feature' as measure along routable roadways/footways? > > Local school board is trying to drop school bus service school kids (from > grade 1 up) within 2.0km of school and get them to walk to school (bear in > mind this is a rural community with -40'C winters, wildlife such as > bears/cougars and an ungated CPR train route through it). > > I have some ideas about representing the data, but does anyone have any > suggestions on how to parse through each node and measure the distance > along each way to produce a list with 'distance to school' tag for every > hightway node?
