- There is a related project which I used several times:
https://github.com/anvaka/city-roads
Edit: it outputs SVGs and you can try it online. Anvaka (author) has other really cool dataviz projects.
- San Francisco looks nice, but there seems to be a problem with the projection in some of the sample images. It looks as if it isn't UTM but a global sphere projection, which isn't suitable for local renders. It's suspicious that the word 'projection' isn't mentioned in the Readme.
- These demonstrate just how car-obsessed our society is. Depressing.
- I believe (from a quick code check on my phone) it should be possible to output the images to SVG with a little tweak, thanks to your use of matplotlib?
Is there a reason you’ve defaulted to PNG that I’m missing?
- Does anyone have recommendations for how to actually print a poster from images like these?
- Are you using a coding package or graph-based approach for this, or is it standard image generation? I’ve seen very similar results on https://picxstudio.com —it’s an AI image generation platform.
- This repo is fantastic. The README should be the gold standard for OSS. Not to mention how stunning the outputs are. Thanks for sharing.
- What happens if there are multiple cities with the same name. Maybe this is a US specific problem, but there are many states with cities of the same name from another state. As a few examples:
Salem, OR and Salem, MA
Portland, OR and Portland, ME
Springfield, IL and Springfield, MO
Dallas, TX and Dallas, GA
- Also check out prettymapp
- This really needs to be `uvx` runnable.
- That's splendid. I've long wanted to make a jigsaw puzzle out of Sydney's road map, so I can familiarise myself with the layout of roads while having fun. That way I can reduce my reliance on nav app and become one of those old-school drivers.
- Three random themes for anyone who's Czech or likes Prague and doesn't want to set up the script locally: https://imgur.com/a/Ovg8mDW
- Awesome! After I generate, where can I take that super res image and get a high quality photo print to frame?
- I tried it in a python3 venv, but the download data step is stuck at 0% unfortunately.
- Etsy sellers devastated
- The map of Venice seems to be the only one whose image is "squeezed" horizontally. Wondering why.
- Pretty cool! It would be great if there was a way to set coordinates manually, since Nominatim can sometimes produce mediocre results. Also, would be nice to have a way to render the same map in all themes, not just one.
- Looks amazing ! In my free time, i play with my laser cutting machine. It will save me some design time. Thanks

- Why are big chunks of Sam Francisco missing (eg around the bridge) missing from the example?
- what are the blue dots? (not water bodies i think?)
- It says there are examples but I can't see them?
- Very cool, thanks for sharing!!
- Nice! Thanks
