Gnuite, cracking update! Do you think ViaMicelin maps will upload - they are cartographically pleasing on the eye and easy to glance at to check progress on a journey here's a link and an example of the HTML script: <script src='http://www.viamichelin.fr/viamichelin/int/jsp/map/netLink.jsm....' type='text/javascript'></script> Also from the other week I have had some joy in extracting the MSR MapCruncher (http://research.microsoft.com/mapcruncher/) derived tiles and restoring/naming/filing them with shell script from the XML file, but as yet only for small areas ~ 15km x15 km; it slightly mandraulic, but I will tidy it up.
