Tracestrack Maps

• Tracestrack Maps

  The maps are derived from [[https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto][gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto]].

• Goals

  The maps aim to be avant-garde and progressive, i.e. willing to change and support new tags. However there are some guidelines in general:

  1. similar to osm-carto so that users can cross-reference and understand without much context switching.
  2. general and balanced to everyday use. For example, no street_lamp or power lines as they are less useful and clutter the maps.
  3. for Topo map, priority should be given to outdoor activities.
  4. maintaining similarity and relevance between Carto and Topo.

• Issue reports

  You are welcome to open issues about styling and tag support for Carto, Topo and Label maps.

• Open status

| Name | Description | Status | |-------+--------------------------------------------------------------------+-------------| | Carto | flat background map similar to osm-carto. | Open | | Topo | topographical map featuring relief, hill shades and contour lines. | Open | | Label | labels, icons and boundaries on top of background maps. | Proprietary |

• Setup

  Please setup a same enviroment as described in [[https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto][gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto]]. For working with DEM data, please refer to [[https://github.com/der-stefan/OpenTopoMap/blob/master/mapnik/HOWTO_DEM.md][der-stefan/OpenTopoMap]]. Setting up the enviroment requires some decent Linux and GIS knowledge and won't be covered in this repository.
