I am a newbie on openstreetmap related developments, I need to build a web application using PHP or Python frameworks, that could draw map using OSM data. It should also allows to edit attributes of nodes (ex: highway, signal lights, foot path, parking etc), edited data should not need to be updated to OSM servers.

I couldn't find any proper guide. Let me know if there any guides or tutorials to do so.

Where should I start?

    The answer is yes. However, it is such a broad question, it is likely to be impossible to answer in the scope of this format. I would recommend that you look at some of the examples from OpenLayers or Leaflet to get started.

    I think your approach is not polite to other OSM users/volunteers. If you will improve attribute data of OSM why don't you want to update them on OSM server? What is the reason to have a parallel OSM database, you will lost updates made on the OSM database. Use JOSM or other OSM editor to update OSM data.

  • @scai My reason to develop a traffic planner. but there is a possibility that user could update wrong data. For this purpose i don't need to update all edited data.

  • Do your users only need to edit the tagging of OSM elements, or even the geometry of ways oder position of nodes?

You can also try the service from http://www.map-wizard.com ... (I have no clue whether that website is also dislayed in English language or only in German like in my browser)

They have a platform where multiple users can review and edit the tagging of OSM elements for a certain area from OSM data.

Maybe you can ask them via email about your aim.
