road-quality

• Entry points:
  • test-maps.html tests the sub-project with Thunderforest background using tiles.js. See _index.js, used also from proinfrastructura.ro
  • test-hcd.html tests the sub-project with google background using vector-hcd.js. See _roadQuality-gmaps.js, can be used from proinfrastructura.ro, using vector-hcd.js
  • index.html, home without the _index.js mechanism
  • full.html full screen
• osmimport takes care of fetching from OSM (overpass) the infrastructure project data, mostly runs in the docker-osmimport container
  • osmimport/daily.sh reads data from OSM and places it in the /data folder
  • osmimport/crontab.in sets the frequency of the OSM import
  • after the OSM import, a prerendering script is executed in the mapnik-docker container: osmimport/rerender-quality.sh
• nginx-quality.conf is the nginx fragment that configures this sub-project in the the docker-mapnik container.
  • in principle it maps /tiles URIs to tilestache to draw the quality colors and write the year/ road name texts along the lines
  • tilestache/quality.cfg is the tilestache configuration for the tiles layer. It makes use of the mapnik file tilestache/osm-noent.xml
  • JS files are served from /work/maps/road-quality

TODO:

• switch from leaflet to openlayers (already used by editor)
• tilestache (not active since 2019) is still tied to python 2.7 which is end of life. python3-mapnik is available though... TileStache/TileStache#279
• incremental update from OSM so more frequent updates can be made
• the log file are supposed to show the a log of road quality editing by various OSM users.
  • Stopped working propertly a few years ago when geofabrik stopped including user data in their export files due to GDPR.
  • We are not using geofabrik any longer but an overpass script. So Maybe this can be fixed
