I’ve written a slippy map tile server as an alternative to mod_tile + renderd that I’ve been using to host and prerender maps (about 100M tiles rendered thus far). Maybe it’ll be useful to someone else as well.
Features:
Selection based prerendering capability (see screenshots of the control panel), tiles are stored in a single file.
Can be built and run without Mapnik if you have an existing tile database.
@seemk maybe a diary post, or reposting on the dev list would be a good idea, this forum isn’t really that frequented (haven’t looked at the server itself yet so no comment :-))
Long time since I last visited the forums. I wanted an easier deployment (a single executable) instead of depending on Apache. Part of it was for fun also
Thanks! It runs on Linux, OS X and is MIT licensed. I’ve added a license to the repository now.
