Hi, In order to have roads of a city in mbtiles format, to do a mobile app, I extracted data in shp from the OSM website. I successfully imported it in tilemill and I know how to export it in mbtiles format. When I import a shape file, in tilemill, all areas are in green. It may be a basic question but I don't know how to create a good style for roads I downloaded from OSM. Can you say how to do? Is there a good and simple tutorial to do this process? Thanks! asked 16 Apr '15, 11:12 Dougui |
IMHO https://www.mapbox.com/tilemill/ contains all the necessary information on styling with carto css and so on. Most users tend to read OSM data from a database so there may be some additional hiccups along the way when using shape files. answered 16 Apr '15, 11:19 SimonPoole ♦ It seems your right. I have to read. I see the power when you want to custom maps but it's complicated for what I need. If you have a simpler solution, let me know.

I use Maperitive to generate mbtiles for a custom Fire Service map - very simple to use. Not using shp files though. answered 17 Apr '15, 10:38 RJCorazza |
