OSM and WMS #134

Closed ghost closed 7 years ago

ghost commented 7 years ago

Hi more of a question really.

I have installed OSM using osm2psql and rendered, took about 60 hours. The result is the same detail as the online OSM service.

I then installed the same OSM file using imposm3, took about 13 hours including optimisation. I then created the WMS service using mapserver, map loading really fast in comparison to the tile based system.

However, the results differ in two ways

  1. it doesn't look like the osm2psql result, ie with respect to colours etc.
  2. the osm2psql showed the name of my local pub!!, the imposm3 version does not.

I am sure I have goofed somewhere but I cannot find where?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Aimee

Imposm is only a tool to get OSM data into PostgreSQL. The official OSM map uses osm2pgsql and you should use that a well if you want this map design.
