  • i have my own map , now how to cut my map into openstreetmap standrad (their folder strucure)?? so that i can load those tiles into server and can access from there??? kindly suggest

  • Answer:

    OpenStreetMap consists of 256 pixel by 256 pixel tiles in png format. There's a set of tiles for each zoom level. The zoom level is the first level of folders in the directory structure. The next level of folders is the tile x coordinate, based on the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercator_projection. The name of the image file is tile y coordinate, followed by .png. As an example, at zoom level 6, tile x coordinate 10, the 24.png image is California, near San Francisco. That tile is referred to as the 10, 24 tile at zoom level 6.
