Absolut genial - Das will ich auch - Nur halt fuer Deutschland ;) Flo ----- Forwarded message from David MENTRE <dmentre@linux-france.org> ----- From: David MENTRE <dmentre@linux-france.org> Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2009 10:14:35 +0200 To: dev@openstreetmap.org Cc: contact@maposmatic.org Subject: [OSM-dev] [ANNOUCEMENT] MapOSMatic: automatic generation of cities' map from OpenStreetMap data == Short Version == We are pleased to announce the release of MapOSMatic, a set of tools to automatically generate cities' map from OpenStreetMap data. MapOSMatic takes care of generating a labelled grid over the map, a list of street with references matching the grid as well as a nice layout of the city if its administrative boundaries are known. For now, it only supports rendering French metropolitan cities' maps, but it will soon be extended to other parts of the world. MapOSMatic is Open Source / Free Software licensed under AGPLv3. Generation of maps can be requested on-line: http://maposmatic.org/ Example of generated map: * Map: http://maposmatic.org/smedia/chavagne.png http://maposmatic.org/smedia/chavagne.pdf * Street index: http://maposmatic.org/smedia/chavagne_index.png http://maposmatic.org/smedia/chavagne_index.pdf == Longer Version == = MapOSMatic = MapOSMatic is a web application to generate maps of cities or towns, including index of streets, from OpenStreetMap data. It is written in Python. http://maposmatic.org/ It is made of two components: * MapOSMatic, the web front-end. An application written using the Django framework which allows to submit and visualize map rendering jobs. The rendering is done in the background by a daemon called maposmaticd; * OCitySMap, the back-end that generates the map. It is available as a Python module, used both by the maposmaticd daemon (above) and by a simple command line application. MapOSMatic is currently limited to France metropolitan area for several technical reasons. We are eager to get contribution helping us to lift up this limitation. MapOSMatic depends on PostgreSQL, PostGIS, Mapnik, OpenStreetMap data, Python, Cairo and Django. = License = MapOSMatic is Open Source / Free Software.
