LINZ-2-OSM

Running at: http://linz2osm.openstreetmap.org.nz/

Requirements

• Python 2.7 (not tested with Python 3)
• Django 1.6
• PostgreSQL 8.4 or later + PostGIS 1.5 or later
• Pydermonkey (see notes)
• Pygments
• Django South
• RabbitMQ
• Celery 3 or later and django-celery
• GDAL 1.5 or later
• BeautifulSoup (only if generating layers from LINZ data dictionary with dd_load)
• Requests v0.14.0 or later

(you can install most of these through pip: use the requirements.txt file)

Installing Pydermonkey

Pydermonkey needs to build spidermonkey-1.8.1pre, and the URL is out of date. To install:

• run pip install --no-install pydermonkey
• go into the build/pydermonkey directory, and checkout spidermonkey-1.8.1pre to a spidermonkey-1.8.1pre directory: run hg clone http://hg.toolness.com/spidermonkey/ -u 1.8.1pre spidermonkey-1.8.1pre
• run python setup.py build_spidermonkey
• go back to the virtualenv root and run pip install --no-download pydermonkey

Installing the app

• make a settings_site.py file and add overrides for things like:

  • DATABASES
  • DEBUG, TEMPLATE_DEBUG
  • ADMINS, MANAGERS
  • MEDIA_ROOT
  • TEMPLATE_DIRS
  • SECRET_KEY
  • the non-default databases are used as datasets, add a _description and _srid field to define. If you add more datasets, run manage.py generate_datasets to update the app.

• run manage.py syncdb to build the DB tables. Creating a user is a good idea.

• run manage.py migrate to apply DB migrations.

• run manage.py createcachetable django_cache to add a cache table.

Load data

• run manage.py loaddata v16_layers to populate the layer models.
• run manage.py loaddata example_tags to load some example tags for road_cl, and some defaults for all layers.

OR, to clone an existing installation

• go to that existing installation (e.g. http://linz2osm.openstreetmap.org.nz), click on "Layers", then click "Export layers and tags".
• download the file, and put it on your new machine
• on your new machine, run manage.py loaddata <path_to_your_downloaded_file>

Then, either way:

• run manage.py generate_datasets to configure the app for the datasets and layers you've added

Running in development mode

• run manage.py runserver
• from the linz2osm dir, run ../manage.py celery worker
• head to http://localhost:8000
• have fun! :)

New Datasets and Layers

To load some other IFF data, use the linz_topo scripts from nz-geodata-scripts to populate a PostGIS DB. Then, add it as a database in the settings file, (make sure it has _description and _srid defined).

Whenever you add a new dataset or layer, run manage.py generate_datasets to update the app.
