openstreetmap-tile-server VS graphhopper-maps

Hi fellow redditors! I have a custom tilemap that I wanted to self host and I conveniently found a good premade Docker solution (https://github.com/Overv/openstreetmap-tile-server) that would allow me to achieve the task quite easily if not for a minor inconvenience: i need to provide the map as .osm.pbf rather than as an ZXY folder tree.

Author here: the docker project for the tile server allows setting up automatic syncing fairly easily:

https://github.com/Overv/openstreetmap-tile-server#enabling-...

I'm not sure about Nominatim or Valhalla's ability to auto-sync the latest changes, at least with the dockerized version, but it may be possible.

We're in the same boat using Mapbox, we've been debating leaving for the OpenStreetMaps container since we only use them for static images and map display. https://github.com/Overv/openstreetmap-tile-server

Our bill last year was $80k and honestly its right on the cusp of being worth the effort to switch.

It's kinda difficult but I have had success running https://github.com/Overv/openstreetmap-tile-server and postgresql in docker to generate standard-style tiles from a planet (.pbf) file that you can download from geofabrik.

My friend Alexander created an easy docker file[1] for an OSM tile server. I use it for nearly two years without problems.

I found this project on Github https://github.com/Overv/openstreetmap-tile-server .

Finally: https://github.com/Overv/openstreetmap-tile-server I haven't tried this one before, but it seems kind of cool, and seems to be what you're looking for?

I don't need to serve the whole country, but it's nice to have a little more than just Missouri, so I was pleased to find Protomaps. There are several other extract repositories, but this was the only one I found that let me define and export a custom region. For the actual generation and rendering of the tiles, it seemed easiest to use this existing docker project.

Hi, I'm struggling to use OSM self-hosted tile server for my project with custom style. I started to use Overv/openstreetmap-tile-server as a starting point to customize and create my own Dockerfile but I cannot set it up Positron (or something different dark/grayish as a starting point) as a renderer style. There are many styling standards, different file types, and no visual editor that can export the required file for CartoCSS, and to add them to Dockerfile.

Unlike most OSM apps it requires an internet connection but has the advantage of an address search with auto complete and alternative routes.

Or use the website https://graphhopper.com/maps/ (disclaimer: I'm one of the founders of GraphHopper)

Both come with a custom model editor (gear button in the top left) where you can tweak the routing preferences to your liking like prefering more the official bike routes or more elevation avoidance or a slower speed etc.

https://graphhopper.com/maps/ is an amazing product that is open source, but it just does routing (with GPX download). I wish it had a little PostGIS data browser that I could write into via routes I draw on the map, or I upload (or import from other devices using something like GarminDB or similar). That, and adding arbitrary points, would be great. Just a simple, general-purpose map authoring tool. I just feel like I'm missing something, it seems like this would exist already.

Graphhopper. It has an Android client that uses its web service. You can also try out the web app.

Yes. Try it out at https://graphhopper.com/maps/

Open Source. The routing server is open source too and geocoding too.

GraphHopper might be an option as well.

Note that you can always submit a feature request here: https://github.com/graphhopper/graphhopper-maps/issues

I'm always on the lookout in this category. I prefer the KISS principle and avoid subscription bleeds. Recently found GraphHopper with a web interface and a Droid app.

There is even an experimental in-browser turn-by-turn navigation feature, which you can use with your local graphhopper service, but on a laptop you probably have no GPS and you have to use it from a phone (see the identical f-droid app for this purpose).
