printing - Print map with own layer -
given big city (square 800 km^2) layer on it. layer may contain multicolor features such as:
- lines
- points
- text
number of features 1000.
map resource - google maps or openstreetmap (or maybe else?).
my aim print such map on paper size (about) 5x5 meters. document has high-resolution - on paper want see buildings numbers, streets captions , on.
what best way generate such printable file (image, document, etc)?
here possible solutions found:
i know openlayers api can draw layer on google maps or openstreetmap. how convert printable format?
i find out there's export feature on openstreetmap. using feature can't export own layer , won't high-resolution.
google maps has similar feature. using can create own layer. if have 1000 features url big, server won't load it. map won't high-resoultion.
thanks help.
are set on using slippy map tiles? if not, use more heavyweight such gis (geographic information system) package. open-source map viewer/manipulator high-res print capability qgis there others around.
for these can import vector data (available through osm export) representing map, , style like. there several options export high-res printing.
ultimately, may asking question in wrong place though. aware of: gis.stackexchange.com?
