About
My name is Igor Brejc and I am a computer programmer / systems architect. In my spare time I am developing various open source tools. One of those tools is BrekiLabeller, a custom labeller for CruiseControl.NET.
I am also involved with the OpenStreetMap (OSM) project, both by entering new geo data for the area I live in and by developing new tools which can help the OSM community.
My contributions to the OSM project:
- Covering the city of Maribor and Pohorje mountain
- Srtm2Osm tool which calculates elevation contours (from SRTM data) and saves them in the OSM file format.
- Maintaining the OSM Garmin map for Slovenia (SI:Garmin_Map)
Work in progress:
- Kosmos - a standalone application for OSM map rendering and tile map service.
I am living in Maribor, Slovenia.

Hi!
I am interested in adapting Kosmos into a control that can be plugged into a tracking application I am working on. I currently have a mappoint control and have written an online embedded browser which allows me to show google-maps pulled live from their server. I’d like to add offline openstreetmap data as an option.
I have downloaded Kosmos 2.1’s source but I see it’s in Visual Studio 2008. I only have 2005. Can Kosmos be saved or exported to a 2005 project? Of not I can still try to recreate the project in 2005.
Thanks for your great work!

Hello Leslie,
The solution file is in 2008, yes, but you should be able to compile it in VS 2005, since I intentionally did not use any of the .NET 3.0+ stuff (the target of all projects is .NET 2.0). I recommend you create a new solution in VS 2005 and add all the necessary projects manually.

Just to clarify about VS: project files are more or less the same for VisualStudio 2005 and 2008, only the solution file is really different. But I’m not 100% if you can open the project file created in 2008 in the VS 2005.
Let me know if you have problems with this.

Hello igor,
I would be interested by discussing with you of the possibility to use Kosmo to export data on another mobile mapping application (J2memap/8motions). Please contact me on my email.
Regards,
