OSM Layers

This is the XML format used by OpenStreetMap.

It allows the features to be queried:

• ​http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenLinkMap
• ​http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenLayers_Dynamic_POI
• ​http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/osm-layer.html
• ​http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.7/doc/apidocs/files/OpenLayers/Format/OSM-js.html
• ​http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Editors/Django

Nice example for damaged buildings for Haiyan which uses live Overpass queries?:

• ​http://umap.fluv.io/en/map/tacloban_1148#16/11.2445/124.9994
• ​https://github.com/yohanboniface/uMap

Nice example for Sendai Tsunami using different PoI layers via CSV:

• ​http://www.tappenbeck.net/osm/maps/deu/index.php?id=2000

Can this use the same database as used to serve Tiles?

(To use OpenStreetMap as a Base layer requires the use of a TMS layer)
