[Talk-us] On-the-fly Rendering Library? (Was: Re: Whole world files)

[Ian Dees]

It seems that for situations like this it would be nice to have a simple
on-the-fly rendering system that consumed the OSM data and then rendered
your viewbox on the fly rather than creating raster tiles. If the iPhone can
do a passable realtime rendering job for Skobbler, then a heftier machine
should be able to do it at a higher resolution.

I realize that editors do this already, but how hard would it be to pull the
editor cruft from around the rendering engine?
