[OSM-talk] Slippymap with tile metadata

[Frederik Ramm]

Hi,

     I am currently fixing a lot of coastline, by panning the  
level-12 map along the coastline and checking tiles. It is sometimes  
very helpful to see wheter a certain tile has been rendered recently  
(i.e. since I thought to have fixed it) or not.

For this purpose, I have created a slippy map that behaves exactly  
like the one on informationfreeway.org, but has an extra (overlay)  
layer for tile metadata. When activated, you see the tile co- 
ordinates and time last rendered directly on the map.

http://openstreetmap.gryph.de/slippymap/ifw.html

If you use it, please do so sensibly: Every meta information tile you  
see has to be created by requesting a "details" page from the dev  
server, which may put some strain on it. De-select the metadata  
overlay while you don't use it. If you select the overlay layer and  
don't see anything, and after some time only "z=... x=... y=..."  
without time last rendered, then the dev server is unresponsive.

Bye
Frederik
