Map can be seen on http://citysdk.waag.org/buildings/. The map shows all 9,866,539 buildings in the Netherlands, shaded according to year of construction. Data from BAG, via CitySDK. Map made with TileMill by Bert Spaan, Waag Society, inspired by BKLYNR.

This README file explains how to get the data, create the map and export high-res PNG and PDF files.

First, install PostgreSQL and PostGIS. To download and import the latest BAG data into a local database, you can use the data, tools and tutorials provided

redo: Combine Several Fields into One.

A sort of continuation of GIS with Python, Shapely, and Fiona.

Combine several fields into one with Python, Shapely, and Fiona! You'll also want GDAL around.

First, let's start out with data. I'll use Natural Earth Countries 1:50m. Download that file and move it to a directory.

	#!/bin/bash

	sudo apt-get update

	# Now let's install all the required ubuntu packages
	sudo apt-get install build-essential uwsgi nginx uwsgi-plugin-python python-pip

	# PS! If you are doing this stuff for fun I do recommend to install nginx from PPA repository
	# that you can find here https://launchpad.net/~nginx/+archive/development
