Comment (by james_7114737):
Greetings,
The users of my app would be using the OpenStreetMap web interface above
on their computer and then copying any generated static map image data to
their mobile devices manually. The reason that my app is using static maps
is for use in regions that do not have access to mobile data - i.e. no
cell phone service...
Presuming the underlying tile data is conveniently gridded: to ease
computing resources, would an option would be to grow the requested map a
bit to exactly match the underlying tile edges so that the coordinates are
a more straightforward lookup? i.e. use 100% of all required tiles for the
smaller requested area? I am typing in ignorance on this suggestion, but
it is something I would check for if I was coding this as a quick and easy
solution...
CU,[[BR]]
