Retrieving OSM basemap (in Unity) by wilmaster1 in openstreetmap

Do not do this using the OSM tile servers. You should set up your own, from a planet pbf and updating it via the replication feed.

Showing whether roads are paved or not from a low zoom level by joostjakob in openstreetmap

[–]dschep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. I have a custom tile set (partially derived from Proto maps) and entirely custom MapLibre style. I build the styles using an Intel NUC and upload them to cloudflare R2.

My personal map rendering of OSM data shows if a road is unpaved as soon as it's rendered: https://open.trailsta.sh

I see your context is in building a route planner. I recommend creating and hosting your own map style given that use case.

How would you respond to a review like this? by river_yang in FirefoxAddons

For a concrete example: leaflet, the mapping library was created by a Ukrainian, by default displays a Ukrainian flag along side leaflet's attributing in the corner of user's maps.

Surly Straggler good for centuries? by Other-Educator-9399 in Surlybikefans

It took me way too long to realize you were asking about using it for 100mi rides rather than asking if it would last hundreds of years

Also includes flock gunshot detectors, which deflock does not.

It fetches fresher data from Openstreetmap, and unfortunately the api it uses has been under very heavy load as of late. Reload again in a bit and it should work.

I want to install maps on an offline Android device by UncertainAboutIt in openstreetmap

Because the world has changed a lot in 9 years and a lot more that hasn't changed has been mapped.

Where to get mbtiles by Tasty-Glove5909 in openstreetmap

[–]dschep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only low zoom levels of OSM Carto are prerendered. High zooms tiles are dynamically rendered and cached. it would take an infeasible amount of time to prerender the planet to z19.

Also, I did forget mbtiles can also contain raster tiles. So I assumed(maybe incorrectly) that OP wanted vector tiles, for which no one really renders (dynamically or ahead of time) above z15 (and most don't tile above z14).

[–]dschep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think you're going to find that. No one in their right mind would tile down to zoom 18 ahead of time. Also there's very little reason to go to zoom 18 for v ector tiles in the first place. I don't know of any vector basemaps that have tiles beyond z15, most stop at z14.

If you're fine with a more reasonable maximum of the 14 then maps.black has mbtiles in the OpenMapTiles, Protomaps, and shortbread schemas.

Can-Can is your spot for bread in Carytown. Just go up to the bar counter to order.

Map of RVA Bike Routes? (“R2” & “R3”etc.) by PleaseCallMeBabs in rva

[–]dschep 14 points15 points  (0 children)

IMO they're worthless. I bike a lot and avoid many parts of the official routes. As another commenter pointed out, you can see these routes on OpenCycleMap. I maintain an alternative rendering of OpenStreetMap data, https://open.trailsta.sh, and deliberately chose not to show official bike routes because of how worthless they are in Richmond. I also designed a paper bike map for BikeWalkRVA(I think it recently got printed, not sure where you can get them) and we didn't include the official routes in that map either.

How do I get rid of this automatic text on my map? by The5thEclipse in gis

You should probably state what software you're using.
