Hi guys!
I am an Italian user of OpenStreetMap and want to develop a simple offline project with HTML-Javascript.
I want to download a particular area (example: Milan with near cities) and take important points like restaurants, bars, pubs, hospitals, crossroads, streets… by HTML-Javascript, in offline-mode (offline-mode, after I download the map).
Is it possible? What tools or APIs do I need? How? Is there a tutorial I can see with examples?
Sorry for my bad English (is it bad?)
Thanks a lot!
JOSM can do all of things you mention, but it is Java based, I don’t know that it can digest maps of the size you are talking about in one go, and it is never going to be as good at routing as online tools. It is a technician’s tool, not an end user one.
It’s not clear whether you want an end user electronic map. Mapping suggest not, but routing is an end user application.
It’s also not clear why you have a javascript/HTML constraint.
