Moorwegsiedlung

This is deployed at: https://lfrancke.github.io/moorwegsiedlung/

Fonts

I followed the instructions on the docs page to download the necessary fonts locally: https://codeload.github.com/protomaps/basemaps-assets/zip/refs/heads/main Last downloaded: adc3c3638ead91a59d1b0640e89a9af1e037c227

Sprites & Map Style

The sprites and style come from osm-liberty: https://github.com/maputnik/osm-liberty

Maps Download

Prebuilt

• https://bboxfinder.com/#53.588748,9.713459,53.601635,9.734724 results in the rough bounding box: 9.713459,53.588748,9.734724,53.601635
• Download latest release of pmtiles: https://github.com/protomaps/go-pmtiles/releases
• Find a planet build to use next here: https://maps.protomaps.com/builds/
• Run pmtiles:

./pmtiles extract \
  https://build.protomaps.com/20240109.pmtiles \
  moorwegsiedlung.pmtiles \
  --bbox=9.713459,53.588748,9.734724,53.601635
  --maxzoom=14

This creates a larger file than necessary because it seems to download low resolution data for the whole world despite setting maxzoom.

Custom

To create a custom map, which includes features that are not part of the pre-built Protomaps one needs to build a custom map.

• Download a OSM PBF extract for e.g. Schleswig-Holstein from Geofabrik
• Use Tilemaker or Planetiler to generate a custom pmtile
• Use the pmtiles CLI to only extract the bits you need
• TODO: It must be possible to cut the bit one needs out of the PBF in the first place to save some space/time during processing

Planetiler

• Clone https://github.com/openmaptiles/planetiler-openmaptiles
• ./mvnw clean package
• The next step will download https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/germany/schleswig-holstein.html
• java -jar target/*with-deps.jar --force --download --area=schleswig-holstein --output=sh.pmtiles
• pmtiles extract sh.pmtiles mws.pmtiles --bbox=9.713459,53.588748,9.734724,53.601635 --maxzoom=14
• Copy the resulting mws.pmtiles file to this project, rename, change code to reference it: Done

Notes / Resources

Build vector tiles

• https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker
  • Version 3.0.0 is broken on Arch, 3.0.1 supposedly fixes it but not released as of May 2024
• https://github.com/onthegomap/planetiler -> Build vector tiles
  • The prebuilt maps from protomaps are created using this code https://github.com/protomaps/basemaps/tree/main/tiles
  • If I want my own features in the map I'd need to use that (or tilemaker or similar) to create them myself
  • To customize it one has to rebuild Planetiler including the new Java classes, Tilemaker can be customized using Lua
    • https://github.com/openmaptiles/planetiler-openmaptiles example customization for the OpenMapTiles profile

Troubleshooting

Unimplemented Type 4 error means that some fonts are not available.

TODO

The map style uses an old syntax and needs to be migrated using
