<p>Dear list members,</p>
<p>Recently, I completed a project of a wall map for the emergency
department of a hospital in Wallonia.</p>
<p>The request was</p>
<ul>
<li>a large printable map (2 m x 2 m)</li>
<li>a grid</li>
<li>a streets list.</li>
</ul>
<p>The originality is that the streets list is automatically
generated from the official database, with respect to the grid
whosen in the project, and that no GIS knowledge is needed to make
the map. Also, the resolution is higher that what I could obtain
with the QGIS composer.<br>
</p>
<p>To this end, I wrote some Python code, that automatically
generated<br>
</p>
<ul>
<li>the map at the right resolution using the Omniscale WMS</li>
<li>the grid<br>
</li>
<li>the streets list using the ICAR database maintained by the
Walloon region.</li>
</ul>
<p>The project has also been the occasion to enhance (slightly) both
the OSM & the ICAR database.<br>
</p>
<ul>
</ul>
<p>It is free to use for anyone at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/ccloquet/streetslist">https://github.com/ccloquet/streetslist</a>. You can either use it to
create the map (wmsmap.py) or to build a streets list
(streets_list.py)<br>
</p>
<p>How could it be enhanced ? Do not hesitate to use it, to comment
it or to contribute :-)</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
<p>Christophe</p>
