We have updated our search backend. It responds faster and uses a full-text index. https://t.co/KwCHUTfZOY #OpenStreetMap

@_serjocas I suspect the tagging has changed and the tiles on the lower zoom levels have not been updated yet. They should be updated every 30 days.

@manuelmeister For higher zoom levels every day, lower zoom levels every 30 days.

@Fevix I fear we can't… there are only a limited number of colors, and also only a limited amount of disk space and rendering power available, otherwise this could have been split into more layers. But if you need it for a special purpose you could do the rendering yourself.

The server is running unstable at the moment. We expect a longer unplanned downtime for about half a day for maintenance. https://t.co/HFm5ABy9hV

[OpenRailwayMap @openrailwaymap]

System is up and running again. https://t.co/Okyw9MFvJJ

The server is currently down. We are aware of the problem and working on it.

Mapper von Ks-Signalen aufgepasst: Hinter einer Optik können sich mehrere Farben verbergen. Bitte keine falschen Schlüsse über "unmögliche" Signalbegriffe ziehen.

In case you haven't yet noticed: our DNS is back and everything should work again now. The outage from user request has allowed the rendering queue to get some work done meanwhile…

[OpenRailwayMap @openrailwaymap]

The issue has been resolved.

For those of you that need maps immediately until the DNS problem is sorted out: this in your /etc/hosts can help:

Of course both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses work for all hostnames. Don't forget to remove them eventually, as some day they might actually change.

@marginauto Dem "git log" nach seit 2019 ;)

[OpenRailwayMap @openrailwaymap]

@mikewiow @Interrail The data is freely available from https://t.co/HCp2oJCsnM database dumps, but likely needs processing before being able to be used for any routing purposes. We actually do not care (yet), we are only rendering ;)

@deshbeta DNS problem on our side. We are aware of it.

@moschlar @luftbremskopf He? Hallo? Was ist mit "Gleiches Recht für alle"? Wo bleiben denn da @OpenFireMap und @openinframap? ;)

[OpenRailwayMap @openrailwaymap]

@GuSv01 @estxkid Proposed features can be added as such to the #OSM database as well. The time they can depends on the local community. In Germany you can add them if the plans have the permission to be built (Planfeststellungsbeschluss). OpenRailwayMap renders proposed lines when zooming in.

[OpenRailwayMap @openrailwaymap]

The render queue on the server is currently quite full: we have expired all tiles on z1-9, which have not been rerendered for a while. This will now happen once a month to provide more recent tiles even on these levels.
