Comments for Kris Arnold http://krisarnold.com I take a shit load of pictures and do some geeky stuff too Tue, 13 Jul 2010 20:18:08 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 Comment on Dynamic Tile Server with Google Maps, Mapnik, and Drupal by Tom MacWright http://krisarnold.com/2010/07/13/dynamic-tile-server-with-google-maps-mapnik-and-drupal/comment-page-1/#comment-4 Tom MacWright Tue, 13 Jul 2010 20:18:08 +0000 http://krisarnold.com/?p=215#comment-4 Cool code! You might want to look into the StyleWriter module, combined with TileLite (at http://github.com/tmcw/stylewriter and http://github.com/tmcw/TileLiteLive ). These two modules go for the viewpoint that each map can define its own sources via tile URLs - so that your map is at /mapfileurl/0/0/0.png, and the tile server transparently handles the rest of it. It's not specialized to a workflow of uploading shapefiles and having that work, but it'd be a small change to do so, and would allow you to do what you're doing now, but with much less custom code. Cool code!

Central State - that's pretty awesome. I'd love to check that place out! How was it? Also, can't beat midget wrestling. Nice job! -Leslie Hi Kris,
