Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
 

Damn. Google satellite stopped working again! I'll try to investigate, but all I know thus far is:
(i) I would be browsing Google satellite maps when suddenly the images stop downloading (but MM does not complain)
(ii) The downloaded images are 0 bytes in size.

Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
 

I am having problems with Google's satellite imagery as well. Google streets still works fine. Have they changed their URL structure or implemented some check to keep people from pulling down the data?

Do you have answer to your question? I need also map of Israel. Thanks

Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
 

Gnuite,

Take a look at this French website; the tiles appear to be organized in Mercator Lat/Lon, but with an alpha-numeric referencing system. The Topo maps and imagery are top notch though.

http://www.geoportail.fr/visu2D.do?ter=metropole

Image tiles are like this:

Also found this http://thepochisuperstarmegashow.com...cts/#geopochi2 a tool that reads the tile into GEarth; would it be of any help, since this guy has cracked the tile naming convention?

Cheers

How to add personal jpeg map files, especially how to divide it to specific coordinaties.
Like I have a big jpeg file , I have some point whose I konw the coordinaties, how to adjust and divide for specific zooms, specific size,... for maemo mapper???

Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
 

Try MSR MapCruncher program here http://research.microsoft.com/mapcruncher/

but you will have to rename the tiles; I have written a script but can't upload it ion here.

Is anyone get this site work with maemo mapper, or is it even possible?

Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
 

The finnish NLS topo maps at kansalaisen.karttapaikka.fi use finnish KKJ coordinate system, so MaemoMaper would have to do on-the-fly warping of the tiles. Perhaps MapCruncher is the way. Here is quite detailed description of the KKJ coords (you can extract also some conversion code): http://www.viestikallio.fi/tools/kkj-wgs84.php#KKJ-PI
BTW, stitching can be automated by e.g. montage utility from the ImageMagick suite.

Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
 

I have been download and install "map cruncher" program and sucessfully create map with that.
It makes 3 folders and 3 files.
<DIR> Layer_Newlayer
<DIR> Legends
<DIR> SourceData
<FILE> MapLayers.crunched.xml
<FILE> SampleKey.html
<FILE> SamplePage.html

How-to make files (directory structure and filenames) Maemo mapper compatible.

Re: Maemo Mapper Repositories
 

A part of answer is :
For reference, Maemo Mapper uses the exact same tile structure as Google Maps. The directory structure itself is defined as "map_cache_dir/zoom/x/y.jpg". For example, file "map_cache_dir/12/5/10.jpg" maps to "http://mt.google.com/mt?n=404&v=w2.999&x=5&y=10&zoom=12". So if you can figure that out, then you can produce maps that will work in Maemo Mapper.
By the way, Maemo Mapper also supports PNG, or any other format that is recognizable by gdk_pixbuf. The names of the files must have the .jpg extension ...

I hope it'll help you.
If you find a solution, please help me.
