SVG-Rendering
Actually Osmarender is not the only renderer supporting SVG rendering.
- Mapnik does (see Mapnik wiki). You can easily export SVG over Mapnik and the export-tab as well. Mapnik is also able to export into any other cairo supported file-format (see cairo website or wikipedia entry).
- Merkaartor has a built-in vector (SVG) and bitmap (JPG,PNG) renderer.

- Seems to be resolved now on the page (a number of renderers mention SVG) -- Harry Wood 10:26, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
differences are...
I don't think this list of differences makes any sense because it usually only depends on a specific rendering styles (e.g. by using a specific rule in rule based renderers like mapnik or osmarender). It would be more useful to compare renderers by features. (Renderer-Feature-Comparison-Matrix, Features could be: style/rule based, can generate map tiles, output modes, ...) --Ferdi 15:48, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yes this page was recently changed by somebody who didn't really understand the difference between comparing rendering software, and comparing available map layers. I tidied that a little, but... well example images might be nice, but they are are taking up too much page and they are unpleasantly low quality JPEGs. Feel free to give it a good refactoring. -- Harry Wood 10:27, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
- Lots of refactoring has been done since then (mainly by me). Regarding the images, they're smaller now, but they're still JPEGs. Also I think I would pick some more radical rendering examples to illustrate the point -- Harry Wood 09:15, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

- Maybe something like JMapViewer is what you're looking for (although it doesn't render from XML).
- This is not the best contact channel to ask questions. You'd be better off on the Forum or Mailing lists
