I've spent some time to revive the OpenLayers/OSM map on the
documentation index page. I've loaded all of the OSM data for Denver
into postgres on demo.mapserver.org (the "AdhocVM") and styled it using
the 'mapserver-utils' Google project code. You can view it at:
http://www.mapserver.org/trunk/
Some notes:
- for those wanting to make direct changes, connection details exist at:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/MapServer_at_AdhocVM#WMS_OpenStreetMap_Service_.28for_Documentation.29
(I ask that you document your changes on that wiki page also)
- maps are currently served through a WMS service located on
demo.mapserver.org
- no tile cache exists for these maps yet
- I tried to use the 'mapserver.style' file from the 'mapserver-utils'
project, which I guess is how the original maps were colored, but I got
many errors, so I had to use the default OSM style
Feedback/direct changes on server, are more than welcomed! :)
