OpenStreetMap : Where to search for existing LC support ?

Post by teriidb » Fri Dec 13, 2013 7:09 pm

Hi,
Has anyone ever used OSM OpenStreetMap in their Website or Webapp.
I'd like to know about any existing feature, support or scritps that could make use of OSM possible in a LC coded application.
- Website is targeted first but if there is other Plateform app including a related LC coded work, I would be interested about it.
- or if you think you have the skills to code it,too...
My targeted idealistic use is (in place of G.maps) to add markers on top of an OSM made maps.
-Eventully define/display limits line of some area using vectors: i.e. trace the limits of a real estate, a surburb, etc...
- Partial OSM Maps data could be imported/saved/loaded from an SQL type DB.
- save and print Map with outline limits.

Thanks for any info. about OSM use.
Terii :)

The OSM API is here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API

As a RESTful API, it can be used with the RevBrowser external easily enough, or in more specialized applications through LC's support of HTTP.
