Introduction

Mapweaver has its roots in mapgen.pl, osmdiff.pl and osmrender.pl. The basic goals are:

  • Fast and easy map generation, different output formats
  • Fast extraction of needed data out of *.osm files (place=*)
  • Easy style file handling
  • Street and place directories
  • Keep it simple (easy invocation with only 2 mandatory parameters)
  • Keep it powerful (by using more parameters)

Hints

The projection method used is Mercator, ellipsoid is WGS84.
