= Rendering OSM data with MapServer on Ubuntu 10.10 =

This page provides step by step instructions to setup a Ubuntu 10.10 LTS server from scratch to render OSM data with MapServer 6.x.

The following instructions assume that we start with a brand new Ubuntu 10.10 server with Apache installed but none of the MapServer related packages installed.

The setup will include:

 * MapServer 6.x (from the UbuntuGIS repository)
 * PostgreSQL/PostGIS (from the UbuntuGIS repository)
 * OSM data to be downloaded from http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/
 * Use of "imposm" to load the data in PostGIS: http://imposm.org/
 * MapFile generated using "mapserver-utils": http://code.google.com/p/mapserver-utils/
 * Tile caching using Mod-Geocache (to be renamed MapCache):  http://mod-geocache.googlecode.com/

== Install UbuntuGIS MapServer and PostGIS ==
