Hi all,
I'm trying to use the Maps/Semantic Maps extensions to Mediawiki
primarily to evaluate them prior to deployment in a research application
I'm planning. However, right from the off I've struck a problem. I can't
seem to get Geocoding to work, and I wonder if anyone can help.
{{#geocode:Edinburgh}} returns nothing at all
{{#display_map:Edinburgh}} complains that "The value edinburgh is not
valid for parameter coordinates.", displaying a map over the Atlantic
Ocean, whereas...
{{#display_map:55.952242,-3.187337}} displays correctly.
I'm using the latest 0.65 bundled version of Maps and Semantic maps,
with google (although none of the other maps/geocoding service
combinations work either). I am coming from behind an institutional
proxy so wondered if this might be a factor.
I hope this is an obvious one to solve, since I am really excited about
using these extensions.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer,
Andrew

Hi,
I put a little work in my access map and created some new styles for
quality assurance. I tried to keep it as simple as possible, so the
drawing scheme is down to six colours and two line types:
http://access.t-i.ch/qa-map.html
Each of the different (most important) means of transport has its own
layer in which *only* explicit acces-Keys (e.g. bicycle=*) are
rendered.
The second map uses inheritance according to the following tree:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/images/3/3b/Access_hierarchy_simple.pnghttp://access.t-i.ch/qai-map.html
AFAIK it's the first map to draw, what routing algorithms already
should rely on. I belive that this map will increase the quality of
routing information in OSM and therefore enhance OSM a lot.
Unfortunately, the result is 17 different styles, but they should not
change much in the future. (Hopefully, they don't change at all!) :)
The Styles for the first map are:
/home/ti/styles/qa/qa-access.xml
/home/ti/styles/qa/qa-foot.xml
/home/ti/styles/qa/qa-horse.xml
/home/ti/styles/qa/qa-vehicle.xml
/home/ti/styles/qa/qa-bicycle.xml
/home/ti/styles/qa/qa-motor_vehicle.xml
/home/ti/styles/qa/qa-motorcycle.xml
/home/ti/styles/qa/qa-motorcar.xml
/home/ti/styles/qa/qa-hgv.xml
The styles for the second map are:
/home/ti/styles/qai/qai-foot.xml
/home/ti/styles/qai/qai-horse.xml
/home/ti/styles/qai/qai-vehicle.xml
/home/ti/styles/qai/qai-bicycle.xml
/home/ti/styles/qai/qai-motor_vehicle.xml
/home/ti/styles/qai/qai-motorcycle.xml
/home/ti/styles/qai/qai-motorcar.xml
/home/ti/styles/qai/qai-hgv.xml
@Peter:
I have deleted the old access.xml and bicycle.xml because they are
integrated into this new structure. I don't know yet if there will be
other *_combined-styles; for the moment bicycle_combined is unchanged.
As soon as the styles are rendered, I will post it on the
international list.
Thanks again,
Thomas
Hi.
Yesterday I found some time to work on my MTB-Layer.
In this first step I tried to copy the mtb:scale and the mtb:scale:uphill
from the OpenMtbMap(http://openmtbmap.org/about-2/map-legend/) with the
following style.
With the graphics beside the ways it is possible to show the layer on all
maps.
It would be very nice if you can render this style for a first area, e.g.
Ba-Wü or complete Germany.
Style:
/home/godofglow/osm/mtb.xml
And the graphics:
/home/godofglow/osm/Icon/
What I have to do if I will update the style?
Thanks!
Thomas

Hi,
I've just made two changes to the OSM Toolserver:
- - The Python Mapnik module is now built from Mapnik 0.7.1 instead of 0.6.1
- - renderd and mod_tile on ptolemy have been upgraded to r22557
renderd is currently restarting and will take a few minutes to read the various
stylesheets.
