Revised www.openstreetmap.la

Posted by webrian on 15 October 2010 in English. Last updated on 26 November 2010.

This week I've completely revised the www.openstreetmap.la homepage. The user interface is now built on ExtJS, GeoExt and OpenLayers. Furthermore I prepared bash scripts to create Shapefile extracts of Laos (using pgsql2shp and ogr).

Further plans (in random order):
- more information about OpenStreetMap ("about this page" tab)
- translate the page to Lao language
- ~~"edit" tab links to Potlatch on openstreetmap.org~~ done, 08/11/2010
- ~~provide routable Garmin maps (gmapsupp.img)~~ done, 10/11/2010
- ~~provide KMZ Google Earth files~~ done, 15/11/2010
- provide more downloads (e.g. GPX pois, ??)
- improve the map rendering
- ~~slim down ExtJS and OpenLayers library to save bandwidth~~ done, 12/11/2010
and:
- promote the page (and thus OpenStreetMap) in Laos!
