Help needed fixing the London database
by Earle Martin 11 Oct '07

11 Oct '07

Hi, A couple of weeks back OGL's Postgres installation was upgraded. I made a dump of the database before that happened, but it seems to have been in a slightly inconsistent state - key constraints broken in some places, probably due to me removing enormous swathes of spam in a rather brutal fashion. As a result, I can't currently restore it. I tried commenting out the restraints in question in the dump before the restore (which let it happen), and then locating and deleting the errant nodes, but I obviously wasn't doing something right. Could someone with more knowledge in this department please help me out? I'm happy to give you a copy of the dump to test. Thanks very much, Earle. -- Earle Martin http://downlode.org/ http://purl.org/net/earlemartin/

Making a map for a leaflet
by Andrew Black - lists 02 Sep '07

02 Sep '07

(Not specifically OG question but people here have interests in this direction) I want to make a leaflet for an event and include a map. Most of the ways usually done for this are not strictly legal. I could just use the (non) defence of everyone does it but I would rather not. I have noticed that OpenStreetMap has coverage of the area of Central London I am interested in. The simple way to make my map would be to screen scrape the browser window as a bitmap. Is there any better way, eg extracting an SVG file of a particular area. I also want to add some annotations - eg route you get from tube to the venue. Frustratingly it is dead easy to do this online using Googlemaps. But this doesn't help legally for a printed or emailed leaflet. Any thoughts
