MapBox is a great alternative and I hope to write a blog post on their services in the near future. I have been using Tilemill and Tilestream (although, not commercially), and they have proven to be super intuitive and very powerful for creating and serving map data. If anyone has access to a server from which they can host a TileStream service, I would definitely recommend it!

thanks for the post. In case you are managing a WordPress site and are interested in adding maps there easily, have a look at my mapping plugin “Leaflet Maps Marker”. It allows you to pin, organize & show your favorite places through OpenStreetMap, Google Maps, Google Earth (KML), Bing Maps, GeoJSON, GeoRSS or Augmented-Reality browsers easily. More details can be found at the plugin website http://www.mapsmarker.com. Might be interesting within your blog posts context…
Regards,
Robert

I’m getting an error after I type in the terminal command > osm2pgsql –d gis –U postgres –P 5432 newyork.osm.bz2
(I’m using the new york osm file). This is what is showing up:

osm2pgsql SVN version 0.70.5 (32bit id space)

Using projection SRS 900913 (Spherical Mercator)
Couldn’t open style file ‘/usr/local/share/default.style’: No such file or directory

Any help?

Thanks for browsing! I hadn’t thought of the outliers such as yourself which may have had a previous installation of PostgreSQL! Good note on that.

Also, I would like to add that this tutorial will be making its way to the NACIS web-based Cartographic Perspectives journal. It is currently being translated into a more concise and authoritative version. It will also include an extra PostGIS query section which will expand upon how spatial databases empower the GIS user for dissecting large amounts of spatial data.

I’ve done a bit with Django/GeoDjango/PostGIS and just recently started looking into OpenStreetMap as a source of data and an alternative to Google Maps. My goal today was to get some data in from Open Street Map and see it show up. Following this tutorial helped me do that. The intro to QGIS was a bonus.

Note: The only issue I ran into was that I had an old version of Postgres installed and it took me a bit to figure out that the new version auto-installed on port 5433. Probably not a common problem.
