The Indian boundaries rendered on openstreetmap need to be modified to comply with Indian law. This can be fixed by adding the legal boundary shapes to the postgres database and making some changes to the mapnik xml to render it as per requirements
Use psql to setup a new postgis database for the custom boundaries
create database india_boundaries;
\connect india_boundaries
create extension postgis;
\quit
Use osm2pgsql to load the new boundaries into the database
osm2pgsql -cGs -d india_boundaries tileserver/india-claim-boundaries.osm.xml
The boundaries were generated using this overpass query
Styling is based on a fork of openstreetmap-carto. Read the install instructions for how to load the osm data, download the required shapefiles and fonts.
Once setup, you can load the project into Tilemill to test the style and export the mapnik.xml stylesheet for use with the mapnik renderer.
-
Note: A pre compiled mapnik stylesheet can be found at
/tileserver/openstreetmap-carto.xml. Using this stylesheet will require correcting the paths that reference the downloaded .shp shapefiles. -
To setup multiple style layers, follow the instructions here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24492029/switch-styles-on-an-openstreetmap-server-using-mapnik-postgis-etc
