Download file GEO
Archive, extract and
copy to data/
folder from project's home location. Create a folder named
contours/
under data/
.
Create map for specific region, eg. for Piatra Craiului (crai):
gulp data-crai # "crai" is the region name
How it works
For each region, we query Overpass, filter the results, and convert them to TopoJSON. Elevation contours are from SRTM. We then package all data for a region as JSON, the largest is almost 1MB, and they compress to ~30% of the original size with gzip. In the browser, we save the data in appcache, and render the map as SVG, using D3.js and lots of creativity :)
