What is the best source and way to get a list of all intersections in a major city? tyr If one doesn't mind a few false positives the following Overpass API script gets road intersections out of OpenStreetMap data pretty easily: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/QD (the script can't detect false intersections – where only two lines meet, though, e.g. when a road is represented by multiple way objects in the OSM data) In case that the script goes offline a more readable version directly here: Dependent on which kind of ways you are interested in, add the types of ways which should not count as

I'm using OpenLayers to display a map in a web page. I am using tiles from CloudMade, but the same issues occur with the Mapnik tiles from OpenStreetMap. I'm trying to restrict the map so that the user cannot zoom all the way out to world view -- I want them to stay at roughly a city level zoom at minimum. I have tried using the minZoomLevel / maxZoomLevel / numZoomLevels properties; only the maxZoomLevel and numZoomLevels properties seem to work, whereas the minZoomLevel property seems to be completely ignored. Is there another way to accomplish this? minZoomLevel is not supported for XYZ

Does anyone know where I can find the open street maps api for android? I have searched the site and all I can see is other peoples implementations of it. I'm looking for one which can be integrated into another app and fully customized. NickT You can integrate OSM by using the Osmdroid API. This gives you functionality very similar to Google maps but you can also use OSM tiles offline if you prepare the tiles with Mobile Atlas Creator (MOBAC) See Osmdroid home page (GitHub) You just need the osmdroid-android-3.0.5.jar in your build path. You don't need an API key like Google demands and tiles

I am following a tutorial here https://code.google.com/p/osmbonuspack/wiki/Tutorial_1 but I have encountered an error that it doesn't show the correct route correctly. It just shows a straight line from Point A to Point B. What I want to achieve is to show the correct route from these points. I'm guessing the error is that it doesn't recognize any nodes to go through. A similar question has been also asked and I am assuming I have the same problem if I haven't explained my question well. Similar question can be found here: OSMDroid Routing problems when following a tutorial Here is a part of

I have a set of super simple XML files to parse... but... they use custom defined entities. I don't need to map these to characters, but I do wish to parse and act on each one. For example: <Style name="admin-5678"> <Rule> <Filter>[admin_level]='5'</Filter> &maxscale_zoom11; </Rule> </Style> There is a tantalizing hint at http://effbot.org/elementtree/elementtree-xmlparser.htm that XMLParser has limited entity support, but I can't find the methods mentioned, everything gives errors: #!/usr/bin/python ## ## Where's the entity support as documented at: ## http://effbot.org/elementtree

What I want is to display a simple offline map using OpenStreetMap. I cannot find in the web the right tools to create map tiles and use it to display a map in Android. I have downloaded different resources but it seems that I don't have any idea where to start. I want to integrate images from OpenStreetMap using JOSM but i don't know if I can use it on Android. Can I use Mapnik? Your help will a great thank you. I'm currently developing (my first) Android application using the OpenStreetMap (OSM) API, so while I can't help you with the JSOM, I can try to help with the OSM part: Assuming that
