Re: Map tile problems Ireland

Wow
Thank you for that step by step. It will take a few days to work on that.
I already had the BCDRmaplarge but I was afraid it was not to scale.

:D

Re: Map tile problems Ireland

Hi Jerker

"it is my general experience that both of the current, official Irish OS map providers 'supply' maps that would easily date back to 1952 "

When you say official Irish OS map providers do you mean that these are freely available and can be included in Transdem?

I have created raster maps ...

Re: Geo Data - Ireland

Hi Thank you for taking the trouble to assist me.

My problem is that I am trying to model a disused railway. Beeching got at it in 1952. The maps I have, that show the railway, are the ones that existed in the 1930s. Google Map is too modern. I have dozens of photographs of the railway track taken ...

Re: Geo Data - Ireland

Hi Jerker
Thanks for the reply. I think I understood how to manually generate tiles one by one though I have not done it yet. What has confused me is the automatic generation of tiles. For that I need a map in Transdem on which I can draw a path. Then get the tile server to make tiles along that ...

Map tile problems Ireland

OK The map "Other 1" for "British War Office - Ireland" displays in tile services but how do I get this map into Transdem. (not as the tiles ) The tutorial says that to generate multiple tiles I need to draw a path on the map in transdem. Currently I have no map. How do I get the Irish maps into it ...

Re: Geo Data - Ireland

OK Thanks for setting that all up for me. I can display the maps in the tile server. Now I need to read the next bit of the tutorial on how to get it into Trainz :)

Re: Moving a loaded raster map

I looked at the Ordnance Survey Ireland portal. Unfortunately the historical maps do not display the railways that ended in the 1950s. I looked at SABRE maps - Historical NLS - Barts Ireland. It has the old railway on it. But I do not know what the scale or the co ordinate system is. Or if it would ...

Re: Moving a loaded raster map

Hi I have experimented with the trf file and moved the map someway towards alignment. Though it is fiddly and a bit of guess work. Is is possible to rotate the map? Can I suggest that a future enhancement would be a mouse drag-able map. ;)

I live in Northern Ireland and the GB OS website does not ...

Moving a loaded raster map

Hi I photographed an old 6 inch OS map (UK) dated in the 1930s as it had a railway I was interested in. I have lots of photographs covering the route of the railway. I am slowly adding them to the DEM map.

Is there any way of moving a loaded raster map about? I have two maps which are slightly ...
