Polymaps stamen/modestmaps-js - GitHub [map=yes] the code-y bits map=yes is a collaboration between MapQuest Open and Stamen Design, using data from the OpenStreetMap project. The project is an exploration of new frontiers in online cartography and the mapping of open data. More and more open data is coming online every day. All the code used to generate these maps is available for download and liberal re-use. This is a short tutorial designed to show you how to make your own [map=yes] style map tiles. Open Street Map The first thing we need to do is start by explaining some of the basic building blocks of OpenStreetMap (OSM): nodes, ways and tags and how you can query them using MapQuest's XAPI service. nodes nodes are points on the Earth.
