Merkaartor, one of the OSM editor programs, is written in C++ using Qt, so you could start by browsing its source to see how it renders OSM data. answered 21 Apr '12, 12:15  Jonathan Ben... |
There are no ready-made libraries that would do this for you. You could either choose to display ready-made bitmap tiles (which you would first have to produce store locally), or you could read vector data and draw it. Which of these methods is better depends on a lot of factors and you have not given us enough information to recommend one over the other. You might want to check out the Gosmore or Navit source code. Both programs preprocess and display OSM vector maps, both are written in C but use GTK and not Qt so you'd have to do quite a bit of adaptation. Also see this discussion on stackoverflow.com which recommends using the "Marble" widget. answered 21 Apr '12, 11:29  Frederik Ramm ♦ |
Please explain a bit more what you want your program to do. Also... do you really need to use an 8-years old version of Qt ?
