(About modRana QML...)

A sub- (or separate) package, please!

I have upgraded today to V0.51.2 git:modrana-0.51.2, but the bug remains that no downloaded tiles are visible without a network connection.

EDIT: Hmm, it seems to work now after a couple of close/re-open cycles. Maybe it temporarily didn't work because I changed the storage backend in the settings.

Modrana V0.51.2 maemo solves the off-line display bug for me. Thanks.

Yahoo maps have gone AWOL. Anyone else see this?

Yep, backend switching still also has a lot to be desired. Same thing for batch downloading tiles in the minimal network use mode - the "Loading..." place holder tiles will remain in the tile display cache and the newly downloaded tiles won't show up until the "Loading..." tiles are either evicted from the cache or modRana is restarted.

I plan to fix this soon, most probably by flushing the display cache after switching backends & once batch tile download finishes.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions on both how to incorporate OSM tag search to this format & any actual tag combos!

Ok, i started to look at that.

In the meanwhile, i remember Nominatim can do poi search according to this list of special phrases in different languages. it can help?

Interesting! This can actually be already used as the modRana address search functionality feeds the search query directly to Nominatim.

I've tried to search for "staveniště Brno" ("construction site Brno" in Czech) and it indeed returned various active or recently active construction sites in the city of Brno!

So I guess a documentation update is needed to make the modRana users aware of this (or any other useful) features of the Nominatim search service.

I'll add a note to the modRana wiki page, but I think some sort of short in-application help text with tips and tricks for searching would also be nice and not that difficult to add.

FOSDEM

I'll be on the FOSDEM conference in Brussels this weekend, mostly on or around the Fedora stand. So if you are there too, don't forget to drop by to say hi.

about the tag combos, is possible to make querys to overpass api?

on overpass turbo there is a nice wizard, you search amenity=fuel and fuel:lpg=yes

an it shows all the relative POIs in the bounding box

Code:

{
  "version": 0.6,
  "generator": "Overpass API",
  "osm3s": {
    "timestamp_osm_base": "2015-02-02T15:26:02Z",
    "copyright": "The data included in this document is from www.openstreetmap.org. The data is made available under ODbL."
  },
  "elements": [

{
  "type": "node",
  "id": 226914361,
  "lat": 41.8795571,
  "lon": 12.4401874,
  "tags": {
    "amenity": "fuel",
    "brand": "Agip",
    "fuel:lpg": "yes",
    "name": "Agip",
    "operator": "Agip"
  }
},
{
  "type": "node",
  "id": 226929226,
  "lat": 41.8616080,
  "lon": 12.3755945,
  "tags": {
    "amenity": "fuel",
    "brand": "Agip",
    "fuel:cng": "yes",
    "fuel:lpg": "yes",
    "name": "Agip",
    "operator": "Agip"
  }
},
{
  "type": "node",
  "id": 227645953,
  "lat": 41.8613069,
  "lon": 12.5340322,
  "tags": {
    "amenity": "fuel",
    "brand": "Agip",
    "fuel:cng": "no",
    "fuel:lpg": "yes",
    "name": "Agip",
    "operator": "Agip"
  }
},

with the query

Code:

/*
This has been generated by the overpass-turbo wizard.
The original search was:
“amenity=fuel and fuel:lpg=yes”
*/
[out:json][timeout:25];
// gather results
(
  // query part for: “amenity=fuel and "fuel:lpg"=yes”
  node["amenity"="fuel"]["fuel:lpg"="yes"]({{bbox}});
  way["amenity"="fuel"]["fuel:lpg"="yes"]({{bbox}});
  relation["amenity"="fuel"]["fuel:lpg"="yes"]({{bbox}});
);
// print results
out body;
>;
out skel qt;

Hi MartinK, did you get a chance to look at the Virtual Earth UK OS maps issue on Sailfish? Not urgent (obviously), but it does prevent one of my two main uses for the application (I currently use my n900 which already had them downloaded for that).

Not sure there is anything I can do to help, but let me know if there is.
