The route points themselves may be somewhere in the javascript, but Mapquest seems to have done a very good job of hiding them, plus there doesn't seem to be much connection between the route points and the direction information (e.g. "Turn Right at ..."), so even if I could find the route points, there wouldn't be any waypoints. Google Maps's maps, on the other hand, are much more easily parseable. |

Thanks for the tip about Firefox; I am now using it to investigate another new map server over France, serving IGN Maps. I have just about finished the cmd scripts that read the xml file from MapCruncher, available herehttp://research.microsoft.com/mapcruncher/, even for big (50 x 50 km), overcoming a max xml file size of ~100 lines - it extends the quadtree to the max zoom level crunched. I just need to join the scripts together and write some instructions. The results are as almost as accurate as the VE tiles on which they were 'pinned' ~ +/- 5m at 1:25k, showing no discernible stretch to go form UTM to VE's TM projection (although I can reproject using another programme - it's just a pain) I will make this available after the w/e, if anyone is interested.:D |

Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
Could you help me in defining the repository information for the following map site:
http://www.freemap.co.il/map/ Using the above-mentioned "trick" it seems that the tile URL's are pretty straightforward: For example: http://www.freemap.co.il/map/tile.ph...&g=all&i=png24 Thanks |
Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
First, thanks Gnuite for a great program.
I ran across this mapping site today, and it looks like they use an easily-parseable URL format, but I'm not sure about the actual body of the page - there's a fair amount of javascript, but it doesn't look too complex. EDIT: There's a link at the top left of the page that takes you to the "Old Site" or "New Site". My comments above are for the "New Site", but the old one might be easier to parse. |

Can you print on the M800? Thanks in advance, Derrick

The urls, from Firefox, of the image tiles are thus - http://mc0.multimap.com/ptiles/map/m...vice_seq=14458 for Topo http://mc3.multimap.com/ptiles/map/m...vice_seq=14458 for route/street maps They seem to be some sort of quadtree, but referenced from bottom left rather than top left. "13" is the zoom level, with map type being the "mi8**". Any ideas for a URL to go into MM? Cheers Kempja |
Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
First of all I have to admit that for the past few months I did not really think MM would live up (for me) to the hype it generated in other parts of ITT (and other sites) -- mainly because no maps cover the area where I live in any detail. Plus, I don't have a bluetooth GPS. However, yesterday I downloaded it and spent more time playing with MM than I should have (I am currently during my "exam season" at University :))
In any case, I have two small quibbles: - Most of the time, when I fire up the "Manage Map Repositories" dialog, I find that my list of repositories has been doubled (e.g.: Rep A, Rep B -> Rep A, Rep B, Rep A, Rep B). This behaviour is consistent and seems to happen every time except for the first time I fire up this dialog in a MM session. If I click cancel, the doubled list is not saved. - Google satellite repository stopped working about 5 minutes ago :( What is happening is that it either leves a black space or uses the Google street JPEG's. Yes, the maps are downloaded in different directories :) This happened after I played around with the repository settings ("Download Zoom Steps" and "View Zoom Steps") a bit. MM does not complain about the maps not downloading or anything. Weird. - I will be going abroad in a few weeks and would like to make decent use of MM. Is there an easy way of downloading all the JPEG's, at particular zoom levels, for an entire selected area? Or do I have to stay going around the whole area at every zoom level? Thanks for any replies! |

Did the dialog always behave this way, or did it happen after a certain (or uncertain?) event? If the latter, I would try using the "Reset..." button in the dialog and/or gconftool-2 to clear all of your Maemo Mapper settings.. (If the dialog has always duplicated, then this won't have any effect.) Quote:
Check your repo directory and see if you can find any text files instead of JPEG files. They won't have a text-file extension, so they may be difficult to find. If you know how to use grep, then you can grep the files for the string "<html>". If you find any, the error message contained therein may give a clue to why the repo is messed up. Some users have done this and found error messages indicating that Google has detected them as a "bot" or spammer, in which case Google might have started denying you satellite images. (I don't think this has ever happened with Google's street maps, and I also don't think that the Satellite repo has ever returned Street maps before.) Quote:
