Creating custom OSM maps #39

Open SteffenMuehle opened 3 years ago

SteffenMuehle commented 3 years ago

Hi and thanks a lot for your work!

I have an agent-based simulation running on an OSM map, using your package as well as Agents.jl. For testing purposes, I'd like to use a custom made OSM map, instead of a "real" map from an .osm file. The custom made OSM map could be a simple square grid for example, with homogeneous weights etc.

Is there an easy way to create a custom instance with OpenStreetMapSpace type?

Best regards Steffen

Thank you for using OpenStreetMapX All this library does is to translate an OpenStreetMap to a LightGraphs graph with a set of metadata. Hence, essentially a map that can be further processed by other libraries is just a graph. Hence perhaps what you need for your simulation is a piece of code to generate such graph.

If you really need it to be MapData for some reason, you could use the constructor:

MapData(bounds, nodes, roadways, intersections, g, v, n, e, w, class)

(see ?MapData for details).

It would be perhaps possible to create a simplified constructor that just takes a graph, weights and node locations. If you want to make such contribution to OpenStreetMapX, I am all open to it.
