Not much time ago we were visited by Marek Kleciak. You can read about him in OSM wiki.
Marek had a lot of great ideas about improvement of OSM maps, so we decided to make something useful for OSM community.
For this moment we had presentation of osm maps 3-D viewer. It was a demonstration program of working with osm maps. Some words about its work.
Open street maps allow to export any desired region of the world to osm-file. We took part of Munchen for rendering. The program shows the ability of building 3-D objects only with 2-D data. For that time program renders only buildings, roads, parks and points of interest (restaurants, cafes).
Renderer searches tags <landcover>, < landuse> with value forest, grass roads and convert lines in rectangular area and use textures for covering them. Unlike skyscraper, most buildings don't have information about height, so we make it random.
The program can use 3-D model f.e. Frauenkirche, because the data is in form of nodes that consist of longitude and latitude.
