OpenRailwayMap CartoCSS Map Styles

This is a port of the OpenRailwayMap Infrastructure map style from MapCSS to CartoCSS to be able to use Mapnik to render maps.

Differences to the MapCSS Style

There are a couple of smaller and larger differences to the MapCSS style:

  • The rendering of station labels is more sophisticated because Osm2pgsql. Stations are ranked by their importance. The importance is defined by the number of route relations a station and its platforms and stop position nodes belong to. Matching from stops and platforms to stations is based on names and spatial proximity. Stop area relations (type=public_transport
    • public_transport=stop_area are not used). The matching is sensitive to differences in spelling.
  • Icons (radio towers, level crossings) have a higher priority than most labels.
  • The map style uses the Noto Sans font.
  • Railway lines have a white halo to improve visibility on colourful background maps.

Setup Notes
