To generate map tiles on Windows you can use Maperative. answered 30 May '12, 16:57 ChrisH but tiles themselves does not provide me with the routing functionality (am I right?), the only help me to view the map in a fast way; and users can not add some specific info on the map (tile), genereated by Maperative ... so, this is unfortunatelly not the way for me to use OSM ...

Routing is a very different problem from displaying a map and not one that is tackled very often. There is more information here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Routing A tool to create maps or map tiles will usually be separate from the tool that displays the maps tiles and a different tool will handle routing, probably providing an overlay drawn over the map tiles. Using Maperative or Mapnik (or anything else) to render the map is not going to provide routing, just the place to display the calculated route. Of course, you might create a wonderful app that does everything.

I tried Maperitive to render the map tiles and JMapViewer to view them - everithing is fine, I liked it. So, thank you very much to make me thinking that way :) Now, it is time to find routing solution ...

Hi, I have Geoserver for my web map service, and I need serve map tiles generated by Maperitive. Did you use any tileserver for them or serve them directly from Geoserver or other map server?

Did you get this working? I am looking to do something similar but without the routing/map editing. Most important to me is getting a real time marker representing a users location, the data will be pushed/pulled into the application from a smartphone
No, unfortunately not. I only can store tiles localy using maperitive.net and then make JMapViewer to read them instead of reading openstreetmap.org ... But JMapViewer has MapMarker interface which you can use to draw everything you need
