| 3 | | Hi, |
| 4 | | |
| 5 | | I'm happy to announce the first version of the IBGE layer, based on |
| 6 | | the PDFs from the population count survey. The final result is a map |
| 7 | | of the whole Brazil, with approximately 75 GB of tiles. This map will |
| 8 | | be very handy to extract road names. |
| 9 | | |
| 10 | | Remember to use the tag "source=IBGE" when using data taken from this |
| 11 | | layer. This is a requirement by data made availiable by IBGE: |
| 12 | | https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/imports/2013-July/002031.html |
| 13 | | |
| 14 | | JOSM layer: |
| 15 | | tms[19]:http://{switch:a,b,c}.tiles.mapbox.com/v3/tmpsantos.hgda0m6h/{zoom}/{x}/{y}.png |
| 16 | | |
| 17 | | Leaflet.js sample using this layer with alpha combined with OSM: |
| 18 | | http://tiles.tmpsantos.com.br/ |
| 19 | | http://tiles.tmpsantos.com.br/index.html.txt (source code) |

| 21 | | Acknowledgments: |
| 22 | | |
| 23 | | - Dominik Röttsches (abrax5), for offering and maintaining the |
| 24 | | infrastructure needed to generate and upload the maps. Also for |
| 25 | | introducing me to the world of maps and teaching a lot of stuff about |
| 26 | | projections. |
| 27 | | - Mapbox, in special Alex Barth, for proactively offering storage |
| 28 | | space for hosting the tiles and Will White for the quick tech support |
| 29 | | when I needed. And of course, for the amazing opensource tools like |
| 30 | | Tilemill. |
| 31 | | - The OSM Brazil community for the important feedback and keeping me motivated. |
| 32 | | |
| 33 | | Known issues: |
| 34 | | |
| 35 | | - Rio de Janeiro capital is missing, I'm on it. |
| 36 | | - São Grabriel da Chachoeira - AM is very misplaced to the north. |
| 37 | | - Some parts of Belém are in the middle of the sea for an unknown reason. |
| 38 | | - Something else that you are going to report. :) |
| 39 | | |
| 40 | | Br and happy mapping! |
