Introducing the CloudMade Developer Zone
Introducing the CloudMade Developer Zone
The CloudMade Developer Zone launched last week in San Francisco. We’ll be bring the launch to London this Thursday February 12th. There will be keynotes, live demonstrations from CloudMade partners that will include social networking, navigation, real estate, personal tracking, fleet tracking applications and more. There are only a few places left, so please sign-up now to avoid disappointment.
The CloudMade Developer Zone has all the resources developers need to get started building awesome location based applications. Here are some highlights:
Video Tutorials
Video tutorials are a great way to get started with a new tool quickly. We’re going to be publishing lots more screen casts, like this one about our Style Editor:
CloudMade StyleEditor ScreenCast from CloudMade on Vimeo.
If you’ve been using any of our tools or APIs, you can create a screen cast and have it featured on the site. You could show how to make an amazing map style using the Style Editor, how to take our Ruby API and integrate it into a Rails application or how to use our open source repositories to modify our iPhone Maps Library. Email in your screen casts here and we’ll get back to you.
Open Source Libraries and APIs
We want to make it as easy as possible for you to get started using our services. So that you can be up and running with as little hassle as possible, we have open source libraries for Ruby, Java, Python and iPhone Objective-C. From the Developer Zone you can browse and check-out the source code, join the project and contribute back to the community. There’s also step-by-step tutorials for each library and wiki pages where you can add any tips you might have.
You can find out more about the Developer Zone here.

Hello,
I’m from wikipedia. I wonder if I may create the wikipedia_convention style using CloudMade Style Editor 8]
Then, OpenStreetMap’s wikipedia_style maps would be perfect to be integrate into wikipedia articles 8]
NB: our conventions :

@Wikigraphist:
You will currently be able recreate the style in terms of colours, however you are currently unable to recreate the style’s line widths.

Ok, accordingly, if it’s not yeat planed, I encourage to:
* allow user to change roads’ size ;
* allow user to change the stroke kind (line/dashed/doter)
* allow user to duplicate a layer ;
These functions are need to cuztomize a style, or to create “colorA-on-colorB” lignes such as railroads most of time dashed white on larger black line ; Free ways, etc.
