  • Converting PNG tiles to .pbf for self hosting
    1 project | /r/gis | 11 Jun 2023
    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.
  • Self Hosting a Google Maps Alternative with OpenStreetMap

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

    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.

  • Is there any way to view the map as it was a year ago?
    1 project | /r/openstreetmap | 11 Jul 2022
    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.

    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?
  • [OC] Interactive Heatmap of Traffic Accidents Reported by the Missouri State Highway Patrol
    3 projects | /r/dataisbeautiful | 24 Jun 2021
    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.
  • [JOB] Help with custom styling of tile server (CartoCSS)
    1 project | /r/openstreetmap | 6 Mar 2021
    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.
