I’ve now added a (mostly) monochrome variant of the CartoOSM style which is especially suitable for use in combination with overlays as it makes colored features from the overlay stand out more prominently.

Update: the problem was in dead code in my own extensions to the OCityMaps renderer which used Nominatim via geopy.geocoders at some point in the past. This code was no longer used / needed and so has been removed now.

The MapOSMatic instance currently returns “500 internal server error” only, the root cause of this is some OpenSSL error deep inside Django/Nominatim integration as far as I can tell so far.
This started after installing “Lets encrypt” and enabling SSL on another domain hosted on the same server, even though the MapOSMatic site doesn’t even use https yet.
So I’m not sure yet whether this is due to Apache configuration changes, or due to additional Pyhton packages that got installed during the process …
In addition to the Surveillance overlay style I’ve now also added a simple editor web application focused on adding and modifying surveillance camera objects only.
I’ve added another overlay style that tries to display the same information as the Surveillance under Surveillance map, showing surveillance cameras and an estimate of the areads covered by them.

I was running an older version of the French OpenStreetMap style for quite a while due to some missing setup instructions. These have been resoved now, and so the French style print results should now look the same as on the OpenStreetMap France website.
I’ve added the following new base styles and overlays over the weekend:
After re-importing the database I’ve now merged patches from Étienne Loks that add support for Mapnik v3.x to the OCitysMap rendering backend.
I’ve also improved the Fire hydrant overlay, and added support for using more than one overlay style.
