Hi Peter!
2010/9/21 Peter Körner osm-lists@mazdermind.de:
During the last weeks a lot of things happened to the tile-toolserver server. There's still progress going on but I'd like to give you a short status update.
Thanks a lot for the update :-)
Are there any plans to have some kind of tiles upload policy to the tile-toolservers?
I recently started tinkering with open access environmental satellite data and just finished rendering a OSGeo TMS compliant Night Lights Emission Map for the European Symposium for Protection of the Night Sky which can be found at http://light.datenscheibe.org
The software tools I'm using (GDAL,GMT,Python,Gdal2Tiles) are quite different from the tools that are used for OSM. But it would be great if I could donate & keep updating the 10GB of pre-rendered Night Lights PNG tiles I already have to the Wikipedia tile-toolserver setup.
That would free a lot of resources on my web server and I could focus on preparing my next batch of tiles which will be based on the European Environment Agency CORINE Land Cover data.
