I did a lot of testing with vector tiles, marking the streets works perfect, but marking the buildings doesn’t: Benutzer:Bebbe/Test – OberpfalzWiki
There’s no posibility to mark the buildings without overpass, correct?
(offtopic from Overpass but)
Sure there is - it depends on the schema that you use to create the vector tiles and the style that you use to display data that is contained in those vector tiles. Your map in the wiki seems to be a map style from https://openfreemap.org/ using vector map tiles from https://openmaptiles.org/ , which presumably conform to this schema. Many other styles and schemas are available.
Can you explain (best in another topic) what you mean by :
It should look like this:
I generate the buildings, which belong to the street by addr:street.
If you generate your own vector tiles, you can choose what to put in them. For example, OSMF’s Shortbread vector tiles have addr:housenumber (but not addr:street):
You absolutely could create some vector tiles like that but with addr:street in as well. Searching within vector tiles has some documentation here, although it might be easier to ask for an example of some code (unfortunately I don’t have any to point at).
Oberpfalz is quite small in OSM - if I generate some vector tiles for Oberpfalz (actually a different, more complicated schema) the resulting tiles are only 133,890,048 bytes in total.
Can you help me, what do you want to say with this sentence? I am really astonished how many people try to help me! Thank you very, very, very much!!!
I was just trying to say that you don’t need a big server to host or process this data - you could probably do it locally on whatever you currently use.
Is it complicated to have an own Server to host this data?
Whether something is “complicated” or not depends very much on what you are already familiar with. You’re already looking after a nice-looking website that as well as using OSM data is also displaying other things too - I’m sure I’d find setting that up “complicated”!
A couple of years ago I wrote a diary entry covering server setup and using TileMaker to create tiles according to the “Shortbread” schema. The “server set-up” parts of that are still there or thereabouts, although you’d probably need a smaller one, prices in general have gone up and I’d start from Debian 13 not Debian 12 now.
